  • nucleic acids
  • genome stability
  • DNA damage/repair
My lab focuses on the relevance and function of secondary DNA and RNA structures within cells. We identify and characterise proteins that regulate these structures and contribute to DNA damage/repair, telomere maintenance and mRNA stability. A special focus is to reveal how these structures are sensed in the cell and how changes within these structures affect genome stability and by this impact immunological responses.
