I am a senior scientist at the Swiss Federal Office for the Environment, in the division Noise and Non-ionizing Radiation. Current research interests encompass epidemiology, environmental noise effects in general, with a special focus on annoyance and noise-induced sleep disturbances, as well as general and mental health effects of noise, research into novel noise metrics, and noise policy instruments. I am also a private lecturer at ETH Zurich with the Department of Environmental Systems Sciences.
