Background
I studied Agriculture and Animal Breeding at the University of Rostock, Germany and completed my PhD on the genetic background of cattle temperament and the interaction with milk performance at the Leibniz Institute for Farm Animal Biology, Dummerstorf.
As a research fellow at the Roslin Institute, I perform various quantitative and population genetics analyses to (I) investigate the genetic backround of behaviour and diseases in popular dog breeds and (II) gain insights into the genetic admixture and selection in response to environmental adaptation in livestock species.
