Supervision and teaching

One of the most rewarding aspects of my work is introducing students to hands-on research and helping them develop the skills needed to approach open scientific questions. I enjoy working closely with students as they learn how to formulate a research problem, analyze astronomical data, develop computational tools, and interpret their results in a broader astrophysical context. I am always open to discussing potential BSc and MSc thesis topics, internships, or independent research projects.

My primary interests span stellar evolution and structure, particularly massive stars and binary systems, as well as photometry, spectroscopy, and stellar rotation. Depending on your interests and background, projects can involve observational data analysis, stellar atmosphere and spectral modeling, or computational astrophysics. I am also interested in projects that combine different observational techniques, such as spectroscopy and interferometry, to investigate stellar properties that cannot be fully constrained from a single type of observation.

If you share an interest in these areas and would like to gain experience working on a research project, please get in touch to discuss potential topics. I am happy to consider both focused thesis projects and more exploratory projects tailored to your interests and experience.
