Academic Achievements
- Received the Dissertation Award of the German Operations Research Society (2007), the Berlin Science Award for Young Researchers (2013), and the Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Prize (2013). Elected member of the Elisabeth-Schiemann-Kolleg of the Max Planck Society (2013–2016) and twice listed among Germany’s 'Top 40 Under 40' (Capital, 2014, 2015). Since 2020, elected member of the DFG review board for Theoretical Computer Science.
Research Experience
- Postdoc and senior researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics; interim professorship in Discrete Optimization at TU Darmstadt (2011-12); led an Emmy Noether Research Group at TU Berlin starting in 2012; assistant professor for Discrete Mathematics at TU Munich; since 2016, Chair of Combinatorial Optimization in the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science at the University of Bremen.
Education
- PhD in Mathematics from TU Berlin, graduated in 2006, supervised by Rolf Möhring.
Background
- Research interests include combinatorial optimization, discrete optimization, efficient algorithms, approximation algorithms, scheduling, resource allocation, packing, network design, and routing. Special focus on uncertainty models (online, stochastic, robust, explorable).
Miscellany
- Actively contributes to high profile areas such as The Martian Mindset, Minds, Media, Machines, Dynamics in Logistics, and the Data Science Center.
