Munich, Bavaria, Germany
I am a doctoral researcher at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, where my dissertation examines calibrated trust in clinical decision support systems and its relationship to moral distress in healthcare professionals. My work sits at the intersection of organizational psychology, human-computer interaction, and the ethical dimensions of AI-assisted decision-making in clinical contexts. Alongside my doctoral work, I serve as a Research Assistant and Lecturer at ISM Munich. My broader research background spans epigenetics, organizational behavior, and educational psychology, reflected in my publications across these fields. My academic path has taken me across three continents, from UC Santa Barbara and The Florey Institute in Melbourne to King's College London and now Munich, an experience that has shaped both my interdisciplinary thinking and my approach to international collaboration.
In my role as a Research Assistant in the Psychology & Management Department at ISM Munich, I contribute to departmental research activities and support ongoing projects across the unit. Alongside my research work, I teach as a Lecturer in General Psychology as well as Social and Personality Psychology, delivering seminars and course content aligned with the program’s academic standards. I assist with research design and literature work, help prepare teaching- and research-related materials, and collaborate with faculty to advance empirical and applied work at the intersection of psychology and management.
