I am a seismologist and postdoctoral researcher at the Swiss Seismological Service in the Microseismic Monitoring and Analysis (MuMA) group. My research focuses on analyzing and imaging seismicity patterns in both natural and induced earthquake sequences, using advanced high-resolution detection and relocation techniques. I currently apply these methods for semi-real-time monitoring of seismicity across Switzerland.
