Manish Bhattacharjee

Manish made important discoveries during his PhD at CSIR in India about the post-translational modification neddylation in malaria parasites. As an expert and passionate biochemist, Manish joined the lab as a postdoc and is now continuing as a staff scientist.

 

Linkun Han

Linkun Han has plenty of experience in molecular neuroscience already and will use his skills to decipher molecular mechanisms of synaptic plasticity and how such mechanisms regulate food intake. He joins the lab as a PhD student.

Sabrina Galizia

Sabrina did her Master’s at the Sapienza in Rome/Italy and then continued doing research in the UK. We are very happy that she wanted to join our lab as a PhD student. She will integrate molecular mechanisms with animal behavior focusing on nutrient regulation of food intake.

Qiongxuan Lu

Qiongxuan did his PhD in China on a water-living organism. Then he moved to the succesful Changchun Chen lab where he switched to C. elegans. He has discovered already a novel feeding phenotype and was able to employ high-throughput genetics to decipher molecular pathways regulating complex behavioral. With this great and interdisciplinary background, Qiongxuan joins us postdoc.

Jingyu Pan

Jingyu has just joined the lab as a PhD student. Using biochemistry to study molecular mechanisms in fish in China, he is now embarking on a project identifying links between memory formation and anorexia nervosa.

Erik Ekbäck

Erik is a physician-scientist that is spearheading the clinical research in our lab. He has brought the lab to a new level, making it possible to take our findings in mice to human patients!
