Leukocyte extravasation and vascular permeability
Our group is interested in the molecular mechanisms that control leukocyte extravasation, vascular permeability and the formation of endothelial cell contacts. In addition we are generally interested in the regulation of cell adhesion, with major emphasis on the cadherins.
