I'm super happy and honored to be nominated for the Deutscher Studienpreis (German Thesis Award) by @koerber-ip.bsky.social for my PhD thesis on mathematical modeling of the impact of tumor heterogeneity on cancer evolution!

I'm looking forward to meeting the other nominees at the final in Berlin!
