I was born and raised in the south of Austria (Styria) but moved to Vienna to study Food and Biotechnology at the BOKU University.
My academic journey led me to achieve a Master's and Ph.D. degree in the group of Roland Ludwig (-> link), where I focused on the investigation of fungal redox-enzymes and their application in biocatalysis and biorefinery processes [1, 2]. During my research, I studied the kinetics and electron transfer reactions of fungal cellobiose dehydrogenases (CDH), which play a vital role in lignocellulose degradation [3, 4, 5, 6].
The activation of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases by CDH later became a central point of my research [7, 8].
In 2018, I had the exciting opportunity to join the Manchester Institute of Biotechnology (MIB) as part of Prof. Nigel Scrutton`s dynamic research group where I studied how protein motions govern electron transfer reactions [9].
Since 2020, I occupy the position of a University Assistant at the Institute of Molecular Biotechnology (IMBT) at the Graz University of Technology (Graz, Austria). I`m a BioTechMed-Graz-funded research group leader focusing on CAZymes that play a crucial role in host-pathogen interactions. In addition, I´m actively involved in the engineering of biomass-converting enzymes. I enjoy being part of a talented team around Prof. Robert Kourist at IMBT and contributing to cutting-edge research in the field of molecular biotechnology and enzymology.
