    As a Master’s student of cultural history and theory, with a background in political science, I am interested in approaching research topics through an interdisciplinary lens, so the academic diversity at “Applied Humanities” is exciting. My own studies focus on critical, postcolonial, and queer theories.

    My Bachelor’s studies in history at HU Berlin have deepened my interest in the history of climate-change science. Through previous experience as a student assistant, I have come to greatly value collaboration as a practice in the humanities, which is why I am especially excited to contribute to the center.
