Reinvigorating European Progress

I am a German medical doctor and clinical neuroscientist pursuing a career in science policy and technology governance. Throughout my academic journey, I’ve always been passionate about using scientific rigor to understand public policy issues and their political interface. In particular, I am interested in applying a progress-driven perspective to a European context. My goal is to investigate how Germany and the broader European Union can become more economically, scientifically, and technologically dynamic (again). In the process, I aim to identify key obstacles and opportunities and explore effective policy solutions.
