Making hidden regulation visible.

I study heart-rate variability in critically ill infants and children to make hidden autonomic dynamics visible — and clinically meaningful.

I am a neonatologist and pediatric intensivist in Cologne, drawn to physiology, movement, and dynamic systems under stress.

Work

At the intersection of pediatric critical care, physiology, and signal visualization.

My work asks a simple but difficult question: can we see changes in autonomic regulation early enough to understand the patient better?

My work spans from early clinical questions — such as intranasal breast milk in preterm infants — to current efforts to understand autonomic regulation as a continuous, dynamic system.

Bedside care

Clinical work in neonatology and pediatric intensive care.

HRV research

Heart-rate variability as a real-time marker of adaptation, stress, and recovery.

Tools

Building lightweight ways to acquire, visualize, and explore physiological data.

I’m interested in people who think differently — and want to explore this together.
Clinicians, researchers, developers, entrepreneurs, athletes, and curious builders are welcome.
AUREON

Autonomic regulation on site.

AUREON is my evolving research and toolset for making autonomic regulation visible as continuous HRV trajectory dynamics.

Acquire

Capture RR-interval data with small, practical setups.

Explore

View beat-to-beat dynamics as trajectories in physiological time.

Analyze

Study transitions, loops, responses, and patterns of regulation.

Translate

Turn physiological signals into clinical understanding.

Notes

Fragments from my world.

Short notes and essays — clinical physiology, systems, perception, movement, and learning.
