Specialization
Endothelial cell function ; Microvascular permeability
Focus of research
My goal is to understand the molecular mechanisms that regulate blood-retina barrier (BRB) function during health and disease. During my project, l have a special interest in the role of the endothelial cell-specific protein PLVAP in microvascular permeability.
Background: Biomedical Sciences, with a focus on advanced microscopy
