our lab is located at the leibniz institute of plant biochemistry (ipb) in halle. we are primarily interested in auxin and other plant hormone responses in the tiny weed arabidopsis thaliana. since several of these signaling cascades are regulated by the ubiquitin-proteasome system, we are also engaged in functional characterization of a number of f-box proteins. Our approaches are mostly genetics-based such as:

  • forward genetic screens
  • reverse genetics
  • utilizing natural variation within the global arabidopsis gene pool
  • and quantitative genetics → qtl mapping


our junior research group is part of a larger research network that deals with structures and mechanisms of biological information processing, the so-called exzellenznetzwerk für biowissenschaften. see our static website.
