Research Interest
The Molecular Toxicology group seeks to understand how cells respond to genotoxic (DNA-damaging) stresses on a molecular and biochemical level and how these mechanisms contribute to (patho-)physiological states such as aging and cancer development. Research projects focus on the following topics: I. Genetic Toxicology / Poly(ADP-Ribosyl)ation II. Genetic Toxicology / DNA Damage and Repair III. Biomarkers of Aging IV. Inflammatory Toxicology V. Development of Novel Technologies.
