Research Interests

My research focuses on vulnerability and adaptation to climate change. Thereby, I am particularly interested in the integration and communication of heterogeneous knowledge, which is, I believe, key to assessing vulnerability and adaptation. In my doctoral thesis I have explored how transdisciplinary knowledge integration can be facilitated in the context of integrated assessment and vulnerability assessment of climate change. Currently, I am a member of PIK's Research Domain IV, Transdisciplinary Concepts and Methods, and am leading the FAVAIA Project that aims at developing and applying methods to support the integration and communication processes across disciplines and between science and policy.
