Neuroscience

Research topic: Active sensing, sensory perception and cognition from the field through the lab and into the brain. I use the echolocating bat – a “champion” in active sensing to study these behaviors. Research methods: Behavior... Read More >

Research topic: Cell based platforms for study, diagnosis, drug screening and therapy of neurodegenerative diseases. Research methods: Isolation and culture of human embryonic/adult stem cells models of diseases; Cell based-assays for... Read More >

Dendrimers are branched, highly ordered macromolecules that are assembled in a modular, iterative fashion from polyfunctional building blocks. These macromolecules are not only aesthetically appealing, but offer chemists three-dimensional... Read More >

My scientific interest is focused on investigation of biorecognition in general and on the nature of the interactions of antibodies and their corresponding antigens in particular. In my research work I am involved in the elucidation of the mode of... Read More >
