Current projects:

• Generation of patient specific and control iPS cells/Retinal organoids
• Characterization of cell populations and single cells with respect to CRB1 function and expression

Research interests:

Our groups aims for the development of new dish culture models of the human neurosensory systems, which can imitate the complexity of cells and even organs of a human being. In this course, we use human induced pluripotent stem cells (see here), allowing us to generate specific cells, tissues and even organ-like structures.

Research focus:

• Human induced pluripotent stem cells
• Neurosensory systems
• Retinal organoids
• Olfactory organoids
• Early human development
