Visits

I was at the ETH Zürich in April and May of 2023, as a guest of the FIM.

The Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences in Cambridge invited me for the programme Homology Theories in Low Dimensional Topology in 2017, and I spent a total of four weeks in Cambridge.

The Max Planck Institute for Mathematics invited me to spend October 2016 in Bonn.

The Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn invited me to stay from April till August 2014.
