Work
My main research interests include hard graph problems and data mining problems, fixed-parameter algorithms and problem kernels, and complexity theory (parameterized and classical). My work is funded by the grant “Data Driven Parameterized Algorithmics for Graph Modification Problems” of Deutsche Forschungsemeinschaft (DFG)
Prior to my work in Berlin, I have been working at Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena, Thuringia, Germany.
I am a former member of the Debian project and used to write for German Linux magazines like Pro-Linux.de (online) and Linux-User (printed).
