My research encompasses several topics. Many of these relate to interferometric observations of the environment of stars at the beginning and end of their life, as well as astrophysical magnetic fields.

Currently, my main focus is the extended atmospheres, and magnetic fields, of evolved stars as well as the binary interaction responsible for the collimated outflows of pre-planetary nebulae. A particular focus is also on the origin of cosmic dust.

I mainly use instruments such as ALMA, SMA, eMERLIN, JVLA, LOFAR, APEX and VLBI.

My work is currently or has previously been supported by a Knut- and Alice Wallenberg foundation project grant, a grant from the Olle Engkvist foundation, an ERC consolidator grant, a VR younger researcher award, two futher VR project grants, an Emmy-Noether grant from the German DFG, and a Marie-Curie postdoc and career integration grant.
