About me
I am originally from Germany but moved abroad in 2016 to study in the Netherlands and the UK. My interest in human health motivated me to study (neuro-)psychology and gain insight into clinical practice through internships in care facilities and hospitals.
I have an optimistic and positive attitude and am happy to support others. I am patient, curious, and have an eye for detail.
As part of the INDUCT network, my research so far focussed on technology and dementia ( follow links for details).
In the future, I would like to combine patient care and research with a focus on interventions for older individuals with complex health issues.
Research description
Research interests include:
- Older adults with and without cognitive impairments (e.g. MCI, dementia, caregivers)
