I am a Full Professor occupying the chair of Noncommutative Geometry at the Institute for Mathematics, Astrophysics and Particle Physics of the Radboud University Nijmegen. My research focuses on noncommutative geometry and its applications to particle physics.
Editor for Journal of Functional Analysis; Indagationes Mathematicae; Mathematical Physics, Analysis and Geometry; and Journal of Noncommutative Geometry.
