I'm a graduate student and a member of the "Graduiertenkolleg Theoretische Physik und Astrophysik". At the moment I'm working on my PhD thesis about turbulence in star forming regions. One main goal of my work is to implement a subgrid scale turbulence model into the cosmological hydrocode ENZO in course of the FEARLESS project. My advisor for this project is Prof. Jens Niemeyer and my collaborators are Wolfram Schmidt, Luigi Iapichino, Markus Hupp. Christoph Federrath and Prof. Christian Klingenberg.
