What I am looking for in a prospective Rising Star
Together with the Rising Star I expect to perform exciting, innovative research and publish it as shared publications. If it is suitable, I would welcome the establishment of long-term collaborations. I am always interested in recruiting excellent PhD students and postdocs.
