Biographical Information
I have specialized on Tibet and the Himalayas as well as East Asia as my primary research areas and have wide-ranging interests including the history of knowledge and exploration, material and visual cultures, history of mapping and cartography and cultural interactions. Trained in Sinology, Central Asian Studies (Tibetology) and Economics I hold a Ph.D. in Central Asian Studies from Humboldt University of Berlin (2008). In 2018 I completed my habilitation (HDR) on the British Library’s Wise Collection at the EPHE (École pratique des hautes études) in Paris, published under the title “An Atlas of the Himalayas by a 19th Century Tibetan Lama. A Journey of Discovery” (Brill 2020). Between 2018 and 2021 I studied the collection of East Asian maps at the Museum am Rothenbaum (MARKK) in Hamburg in the context of the BMBF-research project “Coloured maps”. Currently I am Principal Investigator of the project "Maps as Knowledge Resources and Mapmaking as Process: The Case of the Mapping of Tibet" at the Cluster of Excellence “Understanding Written Artefacts” at the Universität Hamburg.
