Since undergraduate student, I have been working on observations of dying stars. Especially during my period in Bonn, I started to work on close-up observations of stars, including WOH G64, in infrared light with European Southern Observatory's telescopes. In Chile, I continue working with these telescopes as well as radio telescopes like ALMA.
