She worked as a Research Associate for the Department of Neuropsychology and Behavioral Neurobiology at the University of Bremen from February 2006 to September 2009.
In November 2008 she finished her PhD thesis: "Temporo-Spatial Characteristics in Working Memory Processes Investigated with Static and Dynamic Complex Stimuli - Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Event-Related Potentials and fMRI-Constrained Source Analysis". Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Dr. M. Herrmann.

Since October 2009 she works as a postdoctoral research fellow at the Department of Neuropsychology and Behavioral Neurobiology.
