SCIENTIFIC INTERESTS AND GOALS

I am mainly interested in signaling pathways that contribute to reprogramming of normal cell cycle and cancer developing. Also I am fascinated by posttranslational proteins modifications, mechanisms of protein-protein interactions and different methods that help us to visualize such intermolecular interactions in vivo. I hope that this program will help me to improve my knowledge and practical skills as a young scientist.
