Please be aware that the topics listed here are current ideas/suggestions and are often related to ongoing research projects in our group. Therefore, possible topics might be adapted to changed opportunities in these larger projects and to your specific interests. Please contact us for more information. Usually it useful to meet early with the potential supervisor(s) to discuss the scope of the project.
