I am Assistant Professor (Akademischer Rat) at the University of Freiburg, Department of Politics.


In my research I focus on topics from the field of social and political sciences, which in the broadest sense reveal lines of social conflict. In this context, I recently investigated, for example, the influence of political-ideological views on attitudes towards Corona vaccinations, hate speech in social media against mayors, the attitudes of Germans towards gendersensitive language, or the question to what extent men generally, i.e. across all cultural areas, show a more negative attitude towards homosexuality than women.


I predominantly work with quantitative methods and often use survey data. Together with Uwe Wagschal, I run the Politikpanel Deutschland, an online survey of several thousand people in Germany.


On this website you can find further information about my current research and teaching as well as my publications.
