Research Interest

During my PhD and Postdoc I focused on elucidating mechanisms how plant organisms are able to acclimate to enviromental changes, especially how they sustain prolonged heat stress and how they recover from it. Therefore, time course experiments were conducted to monitor cellular responses at the systems level (proteomics, metabolomics, transcriptomics). I was involved in developing and applying scientific methods to quantify proteins over time by mass spectrometry based quantitative shotgun proteomics.
