After three exciting and stimulating years as an Oskar Klein Fellow at Stockholm University’s Oskar Klein Centre, I am moving to Heidelberg on October 1st to take up a new position as Gliese Fellow at the Zentrum für Astronomie der Universität Heidelberg (ZAH). In close collaboration with scientists from the PSO group at the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies (HITS) I will use theoretical models to shed light on the progenitors and physical mechanisms of stellar explosions.
