Area of expertise: Muscle Biology and Cytology, mainly with regard to neuronal communication, neuromuscular junction, cholinergic dysfunction and Huntington's disease.
Area of expertise: Studies Gene and Cell Therapy via alginate hydrogel to reduce fibrosis in diseases of the musculoskeletal system and Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa. In addition, it investigates the viral kinetics of SARS-CoV-2 and therapy for COVID19.
Area of expertise: Investigates how biogenesis and degradation of ribosomes are regulated in myofibers and muscle cells and how these cellular processes affect ribosome homeostasis/turnover, muscle protein synthesis and muscle size.
Area of expertise: Investigates mitochondrial function, energy metabolism, oxidative stress and protective mechanisms induced by physical exercise in the context of neurodegenerative or metabolic diseases.
