SCIENTIFIC INTERESTS AND GOALS
I have always been fascinated by biological phenomena, which are simple but yet contain a huge complexity in physiological events. Therefore I am following many scientists’ progress and achievements in these areas, who are aiming to better understand natural reactions in organisms, for instance, molecular processes and illness conditions. I would like to improve our knowledge about causes and mechanisms in cancer cells, pathways in neurodegenerative diseases and many more reactions that harm or interfere with the human body. That is the reason why I seek to uncover unknown pathways to find more therapies and cures in diseases and maybe to prevent them.
