Marcel studied Physics at the Georg-August-University Göttingen. For his Master's thesis at the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization he was researching the stability and numerical simulation of convection in dry salt lakes aiming to understand the origin of characteristic polygonal patterns in salt playa. After several years at the University of Kassel working on simulations of electrical grids and especially the integration of eMobility he joined the group of David Zwicker as a Ph.D. student. Interested in more theoretical approaches in fluid physics he works on the physical description of condensates involved in meiosis. In his free time he likes to go bouldering, hiking and generally being outside.
