My research focuses on how lake ecosystems have changed in the past regarding to climate and human interactions with their environment. To do to that I study remains of aquatic invertebrates (e.g. chironomids, aquatic insects, cladocerans) that preserve in lake sediments for thousands of years. These remains can be used to reconstruct past changes in temperature, oxygen availability or trophic states of lakes. 

At the moment I am working on different projects:

• Changes in chironomid assemblages during the Last Glacial Period (Bergsee)
• Changes in aquatic invertebrate assemblages during the Holocene in the Swiss Plateau (Hüttwilersee, Bichelsee, Lützelsee, Moossee)
• Morphological identification and barcoding of chironomids to implement the DNA databases
