SCIENTIFIC INTERESTS AND GOALS
Whilst my research background lies mainly into chemical biology and biochemistry, I’m looking forward to meet the wide number of technics in structural and molecular biology offered by this program. I have some particular interests in development of novel anticancer strategies and biophysical approaches in investigation of biomolecules.
