I work in the Institute of Medical Immunology at Charité Medical School. I've joined because Hopefully I can find some people to share information about my phd-topics (coiled-coils and SPOT-synthesis) and add some related methodical and input value.
Education
- 2006-2010 PhD (Boichemistry)
Institute of Medical Immunology, Charité Medical School, Berlin and Freie University, Berlin
- 2001-2005 Dipl. Biol. (Molecular Biology, Biophysics, Immunology)
Humboldt University, Berlin and Gutenberg University, Mainz
- 2006-2008 MBA (General Management - Dual Award)
Berlin School of Economics, Berlin and Ashcroft International Business School, Cambridge, UK
Research interests
- Coiled-Coil interaction, stoichometry and peptide design (We use biochemical high-throughput(SPOT- and Peptide-Synthesis) methods, biophysics (ITC, AUZ, Biacore) and informatics (SVM) to define the rules of association on the amino-acid level.)
- association landscapes for coiled-coil protein interaction
- evolution theory
