Biografie

I am an Assistant Professor at the Chair of Spatial Planning and Research at the Department of Urbanism. My academic interests span across the disciplines of spatial planning and regional and urban studies. The topics I do research on include regional and urban development policies, urban climate change adaptation, waste management and circular economy, energy transition, (multi-level) governance or international policy transfer.

I graduated from Sciences Po in Paris and completed my PhD at the University of the West of Scotland. I worked as a researcher at the European Policies Research Centre (University of Strathclyde) and at the University of Vienna. I am actively involved in the activities of the Regional Studies Association (RSA), among others by coordinating the RSA Research Network on EU Cohesion Policy and acting as an editor of one of the RSA's journals - Regional Studies, Regional Science (RSRS).

Individual grants and awards: Urban Studies Foundation Postdoctoral Fellowship, RSA Early Career Grant, Urban Knowledge Network Asia grant, RSA Early Career Excellence Award.

EU-funded research: H2020 COHESIFY, H2020 REPAiR, ESPON COMPASS, Interreg Europe WaVE, ESPON Financial Instruments and Territorial Cohesion.
