:: Research Group ::

This page lists the current and past members of my research group. For each member, some additional information, e.g. on their respective research topics, is provided.
    For past members, I try to keep up to date with respect to their further career. So, the link to their home page and email address always refer to the most current information I got from them. Note that I only provide email addresses of past members which are still active within academic science.
