Welcome

The research group is studying heart formation, heart function and mesodermal differentiation in Drosophila. We also work on evolutionary aspects of development and morphology. The laboratory uses genetic screening approaches, life cell imaging techniques and electron microscopy, as well as many techniques from cell biology, molecular biology and related subjects.
