Super proud to be part of SFB1348 — and excited to share that I now officially have my own lab in Münster! 🎉🪰
We’ll study #cellbio & #morphogenesis, focusing on organ sculpting and #chirality in #Drosophila.
I’ll soon hire my first #PhD student — feel free to reach out!

I strongly believe that focusing on information & computation during Development provides an important framework, that encapsulates the genetic, chemistry & mechanics, but focusses on organisation, dynamics & logic.

AMPK signalling integrated in growth control - Nature Cell Biology
The AMP-dependent protein kinase AMPK is thought to be activated only when cellular energy levels are low. However, a study now finds that intracellular AMP is generated from extracellular adenosine in an intricate growth signalling cascade, explaining how AMPK can be regulated by extracellular cues.
