Was ich anbiete

I truly enjoy mentoring students and supporting the next generation of researchers. I guided several POL courses, contributed to the Bones and Joint Regeneration Journal Club, and offered lectures in Immunology-Allergology at the Medical University of Vienna.

Having experienced the ups and downs of a research career myself, I can help you recognize your strengths, address challenges, and navigate your path in science. Whether you're enthusiastic and ambitious, or uncertain and questioning whether research is right for you, I’d be glad to support you in finding clarity and confidence in your career.

What can we do together?

  • Spend a day with your mentor: experience “shadowing” in research or clinical settings
  • Role-playing: practice situations like interviews, presentations, or networking
  • Build your network: connect with people in academia and industry
  • Invite guest speakers: hear real-world insights from researchers and professionals
  • Group coaching: for students at all levels—from university entry to PhD

What I don’t offer:

  • A traditional lecture-based course with mandatory attendance
  • Simple chatting without structure or goals

I look forward to meeting you and helping shape your next steps toward a successful future in science.

Was ich von den Studierenden erwarte

Be active, engaged, and on time.


Your curiosity, commitment, and punctuality are key to making the most of our time together. Show up ready to learn, ask questions, and take the lead in shaping your future, I'm here to support you every step of the way

Zeitliche Vorgaben für Treffen

We will arrange the details with the group.

Was ich sonst noch sagen möchte

My research career has taken me across Italy, France, the United States, and Austria, giving me an international perspective. I have worked in diverse fields, from molecular and cell biology to protein expression, bioinformatics, and in vivo models. This broad experience has shaped my ability to think critically and objectively about science while maintaining a deep enthusiasm and passion for research.
