I am a postdoctoral researcher at Freie Universität Berlin studying the internal structure and long-term evolution of exoplanets. In my research, I am interested in how interactions and feedback processes between the interior and the atmosphere of a planet influence its long-term evolution and potential habitability. Furthermore, I am exploring the application of machine learning methods to the characterization of exoplanet interiors. To this end, I developed ExoMDN, a neural network-based model for rapid characterization of exoplanet interiors.
