Biographical sketch

Positions

since 2006: Belle/Belle II Research Group leader, HEPHY
2003 - 2006: Postdoctoral Researcher, HEPHY
2001 - 2003: JSPS Postdoctoral Fellow, High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK), Japan

Education

1999 - 2001: Doctoral studies at the DELPHI experiment, CERN, Switzerland
1992 - 1998: Undergraduate studies in Physics, Vienna University of Technology, Austria

Research interests

The focus of my work are the Belle and Belle II experiments at the Japanese research lab KEK. In Belle I am leading the physics group for semileptonic and leptonic B meson decays, which deals with the determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements |Vcb| and |Vub| but also with (semi-) tauonic decays. In Belle II I am leading the collaboration for the design and construction of the silicon strip detector of the experiment.
