Lab

I direct the Digital Surgery Lab (:experimentalsurgery: Lab Website) at Experimental Surgery, which is part of the Department of Surgery of Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin. My lab's work spans three areas:

• development and evaluation of digital applications for clinical practice and research
• assessment of digital transformation in clinical environments for surgery and biomedicine
• translation of research into practice by establishing digital literacy and skills to health professionals and the general public

Collaborate

I am available for expert consultations, press requests, conference contributions, and academic reviewing. I am interested in collaborating with clinical partners, health technology companies, and researchers working at the interface of technology, medicine, and design. Students at all levels (BA, MA, PhD) with any disciplinary background are welcome to get in touch about thesis projects in the lab. → [Send an email]
