Participation in Working Groups

  • WG2 - Structural analysis of biomolecules involved in mechanobiology

Research Interests

Structure function links within the mammalian nucleus and how defects in these links result in pathology, eg cancer. I am especially interested in mechanisms of establishing nuclear compartments and specifically functional sites or domains, such as transcription factories. How/if such sites are coordinated by the functions of the nucleoskeleton - lamin proteons - if also a key interest.

Technologies offered to other EuroCellNet participants

High end luve cell imaging.

Technologies sought from other EuroCellNet participants

Live imaging options for super resolution microscopy.
