About me

I am assistant professor in the Department of Mathematics at Radboud University Nijmegen.

My primary area of research is algebraic topology. I am also interested in questions about algebraic K-theory, higher category theory, derived algebraic geometry, and homological algebra.

Activities

• Together with Gijs Heuts, Magdalena Kędziorek, Lennart Meier and Ieke Moerdijk from Utrecht, I am running a bi-weekly topology seminar. This term we are covering various basic notions.

• Together with Ioan Mărcuț, I am organizing the Geometry Seminar at Radboud University.

• Together with Gijs Heuts, Lennart Meier and Ieke Moerdijk, I have organized an European Autumn School in Topology that took place September 2018. There were earlier editions of this event in 2016 and 2017.

• Together with Christian Blohmann, Marius Crainic, Ioan Mărcuț, and Ieke Moerdijk, I am organizing the workshop series "Higher Geometric Structures along the Lower Rhine". The last meeting Higher Geometric Structures along the Lower Rhine XII was in Nijmegen January 31 - February 1, 2019.
