Major Research Interests
Development of artificial membrane systems to answer biochemical questions in a quantitative manner using well-defined conditions. Current targets are channel-forming peptides and proteins and proteins that connect the plasma membrane with cytoskeletal components. We further investigate membrane fusion- and fission processes.
