"I study the flora of the Eastern Alps with a focus on Tyrol. My main topics include anthropogenic impact on flora and vegetation and related issues such as neophytes, their spread and effects on the one hand and rare species and biodiversity loss on the other. The work often has strong practical relevance. As Neophyte Officer of the Province of Tyrol, there is close contact to public authorities. Another focus is on the bramble flora of Austria and the Eastern Alps. I coordinate a working group for research on the Austrian blackberry flora. As curator of the herbarium of the Institute of Botany and the Botanical Garden I am responsible for the care of the scientific collections.”
