SCIENTIFIC INTERESTS AND GOALS

For me the linkage between different fields is most important to gain insight in cellular processes. I am fascinated by the high regulation of metabolic and signaling pathways, so I really hope to learn and improve methods to investigate molecular organization to contribute to the development of medical approaches.
