The research team is interested retinal cell biology studying the role of the cytoskeleton in respect to the function of sensory cells. We analyze processes and protein complexes associated to the intracellular transport, in particularly the function of centrins and the protein networks (protein interactome) related to the human Usher syndrome.
Our “therapy team” develops gene based therapy strategies for the Usher syndrome for future clinical use. In the lab training of undergraduate and graduate students of the “Neuro Graduate School” of the Johannes Gutenberg University is integrated in the research topics.
