Research Focus

Our lab is interested in transcription factors and how they enable bacterial pathogens to cause infections.

To address this question, we use and develop high-throughput sequencing-based approaches to characterize transcriptional regulatory networks. Specifically, we focus on two aspects of transcription factor biology to identify molecular interactions that are key for infections:

1. The interactions of transcription factors with DNA to regulate gene expression

2. The molecular signals sensed by transcription factors to modulate their DNA-binding activity

Projects for Master Students

We continuously offer projects for Master students with durations of 3 or 6 months. Projects can be entirely experimental, entirely computational or a mix of both and focus on our key research topics. Read more.
