Our research is focused on the study of dynamic membrane processes from a quantitative point of view. We have a special interest in the membrane alterations during apoptosis and other forms of regulated cell death, as well as the mechanism of action of the Bcl-2 proteins. To address these problems, we make use of our expertise in membrane biophysics, super-resolution microscopy and single molecule techniques.
