About me

I work at the intersection of clinical research and quantitative methods — designing robust studies, building transparent analyses, and communicating results clearly for decision-making.

Focus areas

Clinical & epidemiological study design, causal inference, imaging-based endpoints, and reproducible workflows (R/Python).

Ophthalmology

Retina, refractive surgery, and cataract — linking imaging and functional outcomes to patient-centered endpoints.

Collaborations

UKE Hamburg-Eppendorf; Clínica Baviera (Spain); private & academic partners.

Selected projects

Lens density prediction after vitrectomy

Modeling the progression speed of lens opacification after pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil. Predictive modeling using clinical and imaging variables to quantify postoperative changes in lens transparency.

Deep learning for retinal detachment staging

OCT-based classification to support clinical decision-making and surgery timing in RRD.

Outcomes after refractive & cataract procedures

Real-world analyses of MIOL, RLE and LASIK (safety/efficacy/PROs), including age-stratified and anatomy-aware models.

Education
