Short CV

	Born 1960, married, 2 children
	Started my scientific carrier on the field of analytical chemistry and biosensorics in Halle/S. and Tübingen, Germany
1995	Joined the group of Prof. Solon Thanos at the University Eye Hospital in Tübingen, work on neurocompatible surface modifications and detection of nitric oxide
1997	moved with Solon Thanos to the University Eye Hospital Münster, Germany
2001	Habilitation in Münster: neuroprotection of axotomised retinal ganglion cells (RGC) and regeneration of RGC axons in rats
2003-2005	Laboratory head in the Ophthalmic research disease area at the Novartis Institute of Biomedical Research in Basel, Switzerland, on animal models of retinal degeneration
2005-2010	Research associate at the Centre for Ophthalmology in Tübingen, Section of Experimental vitreoretinal surgery, work on the retinal pigment epithelium, visual electrophysiology in small rodents, retinal degeneration
since 2010	Laboratory head at the University Eye Hospital in Münster
