Optical and Mechanical Tissue Analysis for Medical Engineering (‘Optische und Mechanische Gewebeanalyse für die Medizintechnik’ - OMG-MT)

Lecture, FAU, 2024

You always wanted to learn how to combine optical and mechanical technologies to investigate biomedical samples in terms ofmechanical properties, such as stiffness, elasticity or even active force generation, as well as optical properties, such as scattering, phase contrast or second order polarization susceptibility? You also wanted to find an opportunity for cool seminar projects, where you can learn the latest tools for scientific writing, citations and understand research papers, that prepare you for your graduation theses? Then look no further, because since 2024, you can take OMG-MT, a course that Dr. Michael Haug and I designed and teach!

Bioanalytik

Lecture, FAU, 2023

Since this year, I am the responsible coordinator for the Bioanalytics lecture (Bioanalytik) for Bachelor’s students of the course ‘Life Science Engineering’ (LSE) at FAU. Read more about this course here.

Certificate in Higher Education Teaching - Zertifikat Hochschullehre der Bayerischen Universitäten – Grundstufe

Certificate, Fortbildungszentrum Hochschullehre der FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany, 2022

The Bavarian universities offer the opportunity to acquire higher education didactic competencies in a systematic and practice-oriented manner, based on international standards. Through the standardized certification, graduates receive formal proof of their higher education didactic competencies, which serves as evidence of their pedagogical-didactic qualifications. The base level requires 60 working units at 45 minutes each, in the five areas of:
A) Teaching / learning concepts (‘Lehr-/Lernkonzepte’)
B) Presentation and Communication (‘Präsentation und Kommunikation’)
C) Examination (‘Prüfen’)
D) Reflection and evaluation (‘Reflexion und Evaluation’)
E) Advise and guide (‘Beraten und Begleiten’)

Mentor in the School of Advanced Optical Technologies (SAOT)

Mentoring, FAU, Erlangen, Germany, 2022

Since February 2022, I am active as mentor for Doctoral candidates in the branch “Biomedical Photonics and Data Processing” at the Graduate School of Advanced Optical Technologie (SAOT). Read more about this program here.

Optical Technologies in Life Sciences

Lecture, FAU, 2019

Already since 2019, I am supporting Dr. Sebastian Schürmann and Prof. Oliver Friedrich in the course “Optical Technologies in Life Sciences”, which is addressed to students of Life Science Engineering (LSE), Medical Engineering (MT) or Master of Advanced Optical Technologies (MAOT). I started as tutor for the exerise sesssions and gradually took on more responsiblities. Since 2021, I am giving my own lecture units on Light-Tissue interaction, Spectroscopy and data processing within the scope of this lecture.
