I am a full professor at TU Wien's DBAI research unit, heading the Data Management and Knowledge-Driven AI  (DMKI) Lab. Previously, I was a professor at Aalborg University, a postdoc at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics, and received my PhD in Computer Science from Ilmenau University of Technology.

My research spans data and knowledge engineering, graph data management, knowledge graphs, querying, analytics, and machine learning, with extensive interdisciplinary collaborations in bioscience, health, and environmental assessment.
