I lead a research group (supported by the Carl-Zeiss foundation) at the newly established Helmholtz Institute for Polymers in Energy Applications of the University of Jena and the Helmholtz Center in Berlin. I’m using computational tools and machine learning to capture the tacit and fuzzy dimensions of chemistry and materials science – to design materials that work in the real world.
