Master's in Sociology at the University of Cologne, Germany, 2005 (minors: Psychology and Philosophy) with a thesis on anti-immigrant attitudes in Europe. DPhil at Nuffield College, University of Oxford, 2009 on the cross-nationally comparable measurement of educational attainment for comparative survey research. A number of recommendations developed in my doctoral thesis were subsequently implemented in the European Social Survey since round 5 (2010) and later also in other international surveys. Post-doctoral prize research fellow at Nuffield College (2009-2011). In 2011 I moved back to Germany to start working at GESIS - Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences in Mannheim as scientific coordinator of the new GESIS Summer School in Survey Methodology. From 2012 to 2015, I headed the training courses team at GESIS. From 2013 to 2017, I lead the project "Computer-Assisted Measurement and Coding of Educational Qualifications in Surveys (CAMCES)" funded through the Leibniz competition, and subsequently deepened this work within the SERISS project, resulting in the surveycodings.org service. In 2015 I moved to the department Survey Design and Methodology (SDM). Visiting Fellow at Nuffield College, University of Oxford, Trinity Term 2015. From 2018 to 2024, I am heading the contribution by GESIS to the international PIAAC consortium for PIAAC Cycle 2 (data collection in 2022/23) focusing on the background questionnaire. From 2020 to 2023, I also lead a project aiming to improve the comparability of socio-demographic measures across German large-scale surveys in KonsortSWD.de, part of the new National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI).
