• Affiliations: Medical University of Salzburg
• Roles: Principal Investigator in multiple projects

Research Interests: Combines neurosurgical techniques with molecular medicine to address neurovascular disorders and oncological challenges. Notable areas include miRNA profiling in esophageal adenocarcinoma and pharmacogenomic studies in metastatic breast cancer.

Collaborations involve neurointerventional surgery and molecular genetics, with contributions to device development like the Artisse flow diverter and Bendit microcatheters.

• Projects: Led initiatives on cell-free DNA monitoring in head and neck cancer (2017–2018) and molecular diagnostics in metastatic tumors (2012–2013).
