Degrees:
2002 Habilitation University of Basel, Switzerland Structural Biology
1997 PhD EPFL Lausanne, Switzerland Biophysics
1993 Diploma Technical University of Berlin, Germany Physics (Solid State)
Research Interests:

The lab studies the structure and function of soluble and membrane proteins by cryo transmission electron microscopy (cryoEM). We employ electron crystallography to study the high-resolution structure of membrane proteins, and use single particle cryoEM and electron tomography to look at the organization and complex formation of proteins at the cellular level. The lab is part of the Center for Structures of Membrane Proteins (CSMP).
