Research is ongoing and the final chapter of my thesis is yet unpublished. I case you are interested, you can check out the first two chapters (in slightly changed form) here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... and www.researchgate.net/publication/...

In my thesis, I worked on #knowledge #complexity. I compared and critiqued popular approaches to measure knowledge complexity on the regional level. With all its potential flaws, the concept of knowledge complexity deserves attention as this kind of knowledge my offer superior #productivity effects.

Of course, I owe a lot to friends and family who helped to get me to this place but also offered a needed push in the late stages of my PhD. Thank you!

Special thanks go out to my supervisors Jürgen Essletzbichler and Thomas Scherngell whose guidance and helpful feedback kept me on track. It was a pleasure to discuss (and defend) my work with commitee members Dieter Kogler and David Rigby whose expert critique already sparked a few new ideas.

Man celebrating his PhD defense.

Man celebrating his PhD defense.

A while back in June, I defended my PhD thesis on metropolitan knowledge complexity at WU Wien. It's been a few amazing years, filled many fun conference visits and lots of hard work. I want to thank everyone who supported me on this journey! I would not have made it without you! 🥳🙌

@ThScherngell diving right into the #risis online tool #knowmak to easily access data on and visualise European regional knowledge production, e.g. in terms of #sdg development. looking forward to a great #risis conference in Vienna! #geoinno
