Matthias got a masters degree in Zoology (on mental rotation in bottlenose dolphins) from the University of Regensburg, Germany and got his PhD from the University of Berlin, Germany (visual and acoustic vigilance in bottlenose dolphins). Before coming to ARL, he worked at KBMML in Hawaii for 10 years (a decade with Dolphins!) where he was involved in cognitive and sensory research on bottlenosed dophins and behavioural fieldwork with Humpback whales. Matthias loves to dive, surf & hike. He also loves cooking, playing piano, classical music, photography and books. recently he has ventured into paragliding... and is still scared of heights! His favorite color is BLUE (just in case you were thinking of getting him a Hawaiian shirt). As to his reasons for migrating to ARL form KBMML, he says "If I would have stayed any longer in Hawaii, I would have grown a dorsal fin and started to whistle and click!" (he already does).
When Matthias is not riding around on his VROD, he is working on Biosonar (dolphin echolocation) and Humpback Whale song and sound localization. At present he spends a lot of time in Hong Kong for a collaboration with Ocean Park working there with two pacific bottlenose dolphins, Ginsan and Angel.
