Cell cycle regulation, mass spectrometry

I am a cell biologist and systems biologist. I have made major contributions to three areas of fundamental biology: embryology, cell organization and cell cycle regulation. In each of these areas my work opened a new field, and shaped all subsequent research. Currently, I am at the forefront of methods development in microscopy and mass spectrometry.
