Development and application of artificial functional membrane systems on surfaces.


  • Development of new artificial membrane systems based on highly ordered porous surfaces in order to analyse channel proteins and pumps.
  • Quantification and visualisation of protein-membrane and protein-protein interactions.
  • Aggregation behaviour and channel properties of synthetic peptidic systems in lipid membranes.
  • Formation of highly ordered Silicon oxide structures by means of membrane templates.
