SCIENTIFIC INTERESTS AND GOALS

At the moment, I am particularly interested in the process of metastasis, however, all aspects of nature are too fascinating for me to say that only one of these intrigues me. This program offers the opportunity to broaden and deepen my view in the evolving fields of natural sciences and I am enthusiastic about this chance to not only understand more of nature's processes, but also to learn enough to finally be capable of making my own contribution to solving some of the puzzles that nature provides.
