Biography
Since October 2017, I have held a Master's degree in Sports Science with a specialization in Health and Research from the University of Fribourg. Prior to that, I completed my Bachelor's degree at the Swiss Federal Institute of Sport Magglingen (SFISM). In 2025, I completed my PhD at the University of Fribourg on the topic "Consolidation of balance tasks – with a focus on the primary motor cortex." I am currently focusing on related research areas, including interference, balance, and motor learning.
