Research groups

Cancer tissue organization, Cell-cell signaling, Organoid models, Mutational driver mechanisms, Targeted protein degradation

Research aim

We aim to 1) acquire a molecular understanding of how patient-derived mutations promote cancer development and progression, and 2) use our expertise and know-how in targeted protein degradation to develop improved cancer-targeting strategies.
