Currently, I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Chair of Empirical Political Research and Policy Analysis, Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. Prior to this, I completed my PhD at PaCE Patterns of Conflict Emergence: Developing an Automated Pattern Recognition System for Conflict, which is an ERC funded project at Trinity College Dublin. My research interest revolve around three overall topics: (1) Causes of civil conflict, in particular, how civil conflict emerges from preceding collective action, such as protest and rebel mobilization, (2) using machine learning tools to validate civil conflict theory, and (3) advancing conflict prediction in the context of practical early warning.
