Research Interest
The objectives of the laboratory's projects are to elucidate molecular-level integral components of homeostasis trails of essential trace elements ( eg Cu, Fe, Zn) through the use of biochemical, genetic, molecular and cellular approaches . This work aims to provide a better understanding of the nature of the defective mechanisms associated with poor micronutrient assimilation.
