Stefanie Zbinden

I am currently a PostDoc at the University of Bonn under the supervision of Giles Gardam.

Before that, I completed my PhD under the supervision of Alessandro Sisto at Heriot-Watt University and graduated with a Master's degree from ETH Zürich.

I am interested in geometric group theory. In particular groups with hyperbolic features and their boundaries.
