I am professor for "Algebraic Combinatorics" and coordinator of the DFG priority program Combinatorial Synergies.
- I collect combinatorial statistics at www.FindStat.org. The project is listed at swMath.
- I publish code contributions for the open source computer algebra system SageMath.org.
- I have a MathOverflow profile, a Google Scholar page and (outdated) personal rules for Latex.
- I am on the Executive Committee of the international conference series Formal Power Series and Algebraic Combinatorics and on the Editorial Board of the diamond open access journal Combinatorial Theory.
- I recently wrote a Nature News&Views article Artificial intelligence aids intuition in mathematical discovery on my understanding of Computer-aided research on discrete structures. It was discussed in the Guardianand in the New Scientist, for example.
