Postdoc
University Hospital Würzburg and University of Würzburg
I am currently working as Postdoc at the Institute of Experimental Biomedicine I, University Hospital Würzburg and Rudolf-Virchow-Center, University Hospital and University of Würzburg, Germany.
Following my studies in biomedicine (BSc/MSc), I completed my doctoral thesis in the group of Prof. Bernhard Nieswandt (University of Würzburg, Germany) in 2014, where I studied receptor signalling and regulation in platelets and T cells using genetically modified mice.
In 2015, I was awarded with a German Research Foundation (DFG) postdoctoral fellowship and joined the lab of Prof. Yotis Senis at the Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences, University of Birmingham, UK. Here I investigated the function of the inhibitory platelet receptor G6b-B, particularly focusing on the identification of its ligand.
In 2019, I returned to my former lab in Würzburg where my research focuses on the molecular mechanisms that govern platelet function in health and disease.
