Until the winter semester 2012/2013 he had unpaid teaching assignments at the University of Bonn. He headed a working group on Tibetan/Mongolian translation methodology, which resulted in a joint essay The Life of Byams-chen chos-rje and the Development of the Monastery of Se-ra (Zentralasiatische Studien 45 (2016) pp. 591–650).
