Research interests
We strive to gain mechanistic insights into the dynamics of protein networks underlying vertebrate somatosensation in health, development (aging), and disease (chronic pain) – an endeavor, which lies at the heart of both understanding the molecular signature of chronic pain and identifying novel drug targets.
