Research Mission

We use Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) methods to investigate complex biological mechanisms, including protein folding and misfolding, and chaperone mediated proteostasis. By combining NMR with fluorescence-based techniques, mass spectrometry and electron microscopy we aim to develop new approaches that visualize these events across the microscopic to the macroscopic scales.
