I am an external PhD Student at the Agile & Dexterous Robotics Lab and a researcher at the
Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics in German Aerospace Center (DLR). My research focuses
on the use of optimal control theory to analyse robotic systems and especially elastic joints
in order derive control strategies that fully exploit the system properties.
