Expertise
- Main Areas of Research:
• The molecular structure of low density lipoprotein and apolipoprotein B-100
• Bridging the biology-technology gap: light-controlled organic semiconductor implants for improved regeneration after traumatic brain injury
• Designer-peptide self-assembly into ordered nanostructures
• Peptide-biomembrane-interactions
• Nanoparticle characterization: from liposomes to lipoproteins
• Liposomes and peptides as targeting drug delivery systems
Research Methods:
Electron microscopy (TEM, SEM, cryo-EM), Synchrotron small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), Elastic incoherent and quasi-elastic neutron scattering (EINS and QENS), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, Atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fluorescence spectroscopy, Infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), Nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), Dynamic light scattering (DLS), Cell culture, Protein crystallography, Classical biochemistry
