I am a permanent researcher focusing on the understanding of the structure-function relationships of the human nicotinic receptors, and their role psychiatric and neurological diseases. We combine biochemistry, nanobodies engineering, cryo-electron microscopy, biophysics and […]
Epigenetics defines when and where genes are expressed. Epigenetic marks are reversible and inheritable, integrate the impact of the environment and provide cellular plasticity. Aberrant epigenetic patterns are involved in tumor formation, maintenance and […]
I am interested in molecular mechanisms involved in membrane biology of human cells. Biological membranes are fascinating structures and their complex interplay with a steadily increasing number of proteins build the foundation of organellar […]
Viruses were for quite long characterized as the invisible heteronomous agents, (unseen by light microscopy & unable to propagate themselves in the absence of susceptible cells) capable of escaping the bacteriological filters (Rivers, 1932, […]
