Research Experience
- Leads a combinatorial optimization research group, which is part of the Computer Science Department at RWTH Aachen University. The research particularly focuses on sustainable development goals, aiming to support the provision of safe, effective, high-quality, and affordable healthcare. Specific collaborations include improving hospital bed management, developing planning algorithms for general practitioners, and rethinking work division in pharmacies.
Background
- Chair of Combinatorial Optimization, focusing on the application of discrete mathematical optimization. Her research emphasizes decision problems where the number of solutions is finite but exponentially large and/or not fully searchable in practice. She believes that understanding the structural properties of such problems can lead to better solutions, faster algorithms, and new opportunities.
Miscellany
- Strives for excellence in teaching, not only limited to university education: supports school mathematics teaching through the CAMMP project and offers research-oriented seminars for university students. Additionally, she is committed to promoting gender equality in STEM fields, both as a key focus of the CAMMP project and through WoCa lunches held throughout the semester, providing information and support for undergraduate and graduate students to explore opportunities in science, such as pursuing a PhD.
