Our
research is aimed at understanding the structure and organisation of the
nuclear pore complex and nuclear envelope using various electron microscopical
techniques
Current Projects:
Structure, composition of and
function of the nuclear pore complex basket
Structure of the nuclear lamina
Role of FG repeat nucleoporins
in the structure and function of the yeast nuclear pore complex
Biogensis and disassembly of
the nuclear membranes and nuclear pore complexes during the cell cycle
Developement of field emission
scanning electron microscopy to study cell and tissue structure
Developement of tranmission
electron microscopy methods, including immuno-labelling and tomography to
study cell and tissure structure
