Home Research CV

I am a political scientist at GESIS -- Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences
in Cologne, where I lead the team Survey Data Augmentation. Before joining
GESIS, I was senior researcher at the German Development Institute / Deutsches
Institut für Entwicklungspolitik (DIE), interim professor for political science
at the University of Konstanz (W3-Vertretungsprofessur) and postdoctoral
researcher at the Research Center for Distributional Conflict and Globalization
at Heidelberg University. In 2014, I obtained my PhD with a thesis titled A
nudge too far? The effects of democracy aid on democratization and political
instability from the Department of Government at the University of Essex,
supervised by Kristian Skrede Gleditsch and Jörg Faust.

In my current research, I focus on measuring regime change and state capacity,
developing methods to combine different types of data at various levels of
spatial and temporal aggregation. In substantive terms, want to contribute to
better understanding where, when, and how political transitions occur.

My research has appeared in The Journal of Politics, Governance, Studies in
Comparative International Development, Third World Quarterly, and other
international, peer-reviewed journals. Together with Javier Fabra Mata, I
co-authored the Users' guide on measuring fragility, published by the Oslo
Governance Centre of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). I led the
data analysis for the Hertie School of Governance's Governance Report 2018 and
developed a governance index for the German Federal Ministry for Economic
Cooperation and Development.

See my CV for further details.
