My research aims to better understand the ethics of data collection, analysis, and distribution and the implications for humans. During my PhD research, I focused on data ethical guidelines for institutions, and my current work examines the ethics of autonomous robots.
I am a Research Associate at the International Centre for Ethics in the Sciences and Humanities (IZEW) at the University of Tübingen. I obtained my PhD in Political Science from the NRW School of Governance and was part of the Graduate School Digital Society. I also serve on the Ethics Committee of the Association of Internet Researchers (AoIR) and contributed to the latest Internet Research Ethics guidelines.
Throughout my career, I have focused on the intersection of philosophy, ethics, and technology, with a particular emphasis on computer ethics and its practical implications for society. I am especially interested in the moral dimensions of technology design and how design choices shape our values, institutions, and everyday lives. This interest has led me to specialize in data ethics and the ethical governance of emerging digital technologies.
