Sharing knowledge and fostering collaboration! Our YouTube channel offers educational content and aims to make our scientific techniques accessible to all.

We firmly believe that the most innovative and impactful science arises from an environment where the diverse perspectives, experiences, and backgrounds of each individual are valued and celebrated.

We believe that high-quality science flourishes in an environment where dedication and well-being are harmoniously balanced. Therefore, we actively promote the physical and mental health of each team member, recognizing that long-term productivity and wellness go hand in hand.

Our lab is a collaborative and supportive space where teamwork, open communication, and mutual respect are encouraged. We value curiosity, creativity, and a passion for research.

What does a typical day in our lab look like?

Our typical workday often begins with one to two hours dedicated to writing, reading, or experimental design, followed by hands-on bench work. Our standard day-to-day experiments include techniques such as Western Blot, PCR, RNA sequencing, electrophysiology, and a lot of immunohistochemistry.

We regularly hold meetings and seminars with close friend labs and the rest of the department, as well as with external visitors, fostering the exchange of knowledge and collaboration.

We strive to create an environment where everyone feels motivated, supported, and has the opportunity to grow both professionally and personally.
