SCIENTIFIC INTERESTS AND GOALS

There are many aspects of molecular and cellular biology which interest me, especially the processes underlying cellular migration and differentiation, but also the molecular basis of disease. Through this program I would like to deepen my theoretical and practical knowledge in molecular and cellular biology and hope to gain an insight into different areas of research.
