Embodiment in action
Welcome!
On this website, information on the research and further activities of the "Sport and Cognition"-group at the Institute of Sports Science, Leibniz University Hannover, as well as some professional information to my person are provided. For further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Our research is grounded on the concept of embodiment and focuses on two main topics: motor decision making and interpersonal coordination in sport and movement. In addition and in support of open science efforts, we are active in the field of research data management.

Teaching project funding: "Virtual and Augmented Reality for Physical Education Teachers"
For the upcoming summer term, my colleague Steffen Schiedek and me were successful in acquiring financial support from the Study Quality Funds (SQMI) of the Leibniz School of Education (Leibniz Universität Hannover) for a teaching project aiming at providing students within the teacher-training programs at the Institute of Sports Science with the opportunity to explore VR/AR technologies in the specific context of physical education.
I am looking forward to bringing this teaching project to life.
