Topics for theses and lab rotations

In general, we aim to link student theses to ongoing research projects. This ensures that you as a student can contribute to ongoing research, and that there is a strong interest in your work on both sides. Therefore, if you find anything you like in our projects section, please feel free to contact the scientists involved directly. In the following you will find a non-exhaustive list of suggestions.

Most of these topics can be ‘scaled’ as lab rotations, Bachelor theses, or Master theses. Please inquire if interested.
