Bacterial Genetics
Expertise in bacterial genetics with a strong foundation built over many years, including work on cell envelope stress responses, antimicrobial peptide production, and genetic toolbox development for Bacillus subtilis and Gram-negative bacteria.
Live-Cell Imaging and Microscopy
Proficiency in live-cell imaging techniques, including establishing microfluidics platforms to investigate bacterial locomotion and regulation, as well as collaboration in microscopy and data analysis.
Anti-Phage Defense Systems Research
Deep specialization in the discovery and mechanistic understanding of novel bacterial immune systems against bacteriophages, including structural and functional analysis of anti-bacteriophage defense systems such as Zorya and Druantia.
Microfluidics
Development and establishment of microfluidics setups to investigate bacterial behavior, including cannibalism in Bacillus subtilis and regulation of bacterial locomotion.
Bioinformatics
Application of bioinformatics approaches to unravel phage shock responses in bacteria and archaea, as well as phyletic distribution analyses of stress response systems.
Tool Development for Microbiology
Development of standardized genetic tools and fluorescent tools for work in Gram-negative bacteria, including the Bacillus BioBrickBox 2.0 and whole-cell biosensors.
Single-Cell Analysis
Monitoring of bacterial defense systems at the single-cell level in real time, contributing to the understanding of how different immune systems cooperate.
Scientific Publishing and Peer Review
Extensive publication record with over 23 original research articles in high-impact journals including Nature, Current Biology, and PNAS, as well as peer review contributions for Science, Current Opinion in Microbiology, Journal of Biological Chemistry, Journal of Bacteriology, and Protein Science.
Research Leadership and Grant Acquisition
Leadership of an independent research group with successful acquisition of major funding including the Einstein Foundation Independent Research Group grant of over 1.4 million euros and DFG research grants.
