I am currently an assistant(BAT IIa) in the group of Prof. K.B. Efetov at Bochum University.

My present research interests are in Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics, primarily in Mesoscopic Physics.
My recent investigations were concentrated on the graphene electronics, spintronics, quantum to classical crossover in ballistic transport, mesoscopic superconductivity, Kondo effect and Coulomb blockade in quantum dots, onset of chaos in finite interacting systems, quantum error correction and other problems.

My CV with complete list of publications may be found here.
Here is the statement of my scientific interests and teaching experience.
Publications in the electronic archive may be found here.
