Teaching

I am responsible for the teaching curriculum of Master´s Programme in Biosciences - Molecular Systems Biology track. Additionally, I teach molecular plant biology courses in BSc and MSc programmes.

Research

Photosynthetic reactions capture the energy of sunlight into chemical form. We aim at resolving how acetylation of chloroplast proteins affect light harvesting, quenching of excitation energy, photosynthetic electron transfer and organization of photosynthetic machinery. Recently, we have specifically focused on the identification and characterization of chloroplast acetyltransferases and studied their effects on the dynamics of photosynthetic processes.
