I am a postdoctoral researcher specializing in measurement of cognitive abilities in Jan Rummel’s lab at the University of Heidelberg. My research primarily focuses on exploring individual differences in cognitive control and advancing psychometric practices. I am also actively involved in developing emerging statistical methodologies, particularly in Bayesian statistics, and am committed to making these advancements freely accessible through software tools and open science practices. As an avid R user, I find it invaluable for analysis, visualization, and script automation, especially for maintaining high standards of reproducibility, accountability, and shareability. A significant aspect of my training revolves around the theory of cognition, where I advocate for research that is not only theory-based but also demonstrates psychometric rigor. My goal is to continue contributing to cognitive research through innovative methods and rigorous theoretical frameworks.
