About me
I am a PostDoc and I joined the Göpfrich group after completion of a Ph.D. in Aalto University of Finland and a Postdoc at Saarland University. In the group, I will combine my expertise on soft matter and atomic force microscopy and spectroscopy to engineer synthetic cells and to study interactions between DNA nanostructures and lipid membranes. In particular, I am interested in studying the pore forming mechanisms.
