Since May 2025, he has been working on his habilitation project “Reflexion und Evidenz als Fluchtpunkte der Lehrer:innenbildung” (Reflection and Evidence as Points of Orientation in Teacher Education).

His research focuses on teacher professionalization, the structure of educational knowledge, and the relationship between science and professional practice.
