His work is critical to high-containment research operations on the island of Riems, supporting the institute's mission in animal disease research and diagnostics.

His research spans:

• Animal Science: Specializing in laboratory animal husbandry and welfare within BSL4 environments
• Biosafety: Implementing biorisk management protocols for high-pathogen research
• Immunology: Leading monoclonal antibody production for diagnostic applications
• Biobanking: Curating biological sample collections for veterinary research
• Virology: Supporting pathogen studies through facility management
• Laboratory Animal Science: Optimizing experimental animal models

Holding a Dr. rer. nat. (Doctor of Natural Sciences) degree, he operates within FLI's framework as a federal research institute under Germany's Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture. His department maintains essential infrastructure including the Bio Bank and Monoclonal Antibody Laboratory, directly enabling research on zoonotic diseases and emerging pathogens through secure animal facility operations.
