Curriculum vitae:

I graduated in Mathematics at the university of Hannover in 1999 and received my
doctoral degree in Computer Science in 2005.
My research background is metadata, ontologies and digital libraries.
I wrote the first german version of the Metadata standard LOM by the LTSC/IEEE in 2000 and co-worked on
the realization of the RDF-binding of LOM in 2003.

I was assistant at the Information Systems Department of the university of Hannover from 1999 until 2003 and
from 2004 I was working as a researcher for the L3S-center for innovative learning technologies.
From january 2005 until august 2006 I was coordinating the research issues in the field digital libraries for the
German National Library for Science and Technology (TIB), a member of the L3S.
In that context I was technical advising the registration of scientific primary data (project webpage) in the context
of a project founded by the German research foundatiuon (DFG)
and was responsible for the creation of the DOI application profile for scientific data.

Since September 2006 I am coordinating the DOI registration agency at TIB.

Since January 2010 I am the manager of DataCite
which widens the DOI registration agency of TIB to a global consortium of libraries and information institutes.
I am furthermore chair of the International DOI Foundation (IDF)

October 22.

"My personal overall favourite paper was Dr. Jan Brase’s paper entitled “Information Supply beyond text at the German National Library of Science and Technology - and planning”, where he showed the work done to integrate non-textual information into the catalogue, and how multi-media, including maps, holographic images, videos, and so on were being integrated into their catalogue records. This is outstanding, pioneering work, and I strongly recommend reading both his paper and powerpoint presentation."
