Associate Professor
Current Research
The main foucus of my group is directed towards adaptation, response patterns and molecular reactions of animals towards stress factors of mostly anthropogenic origin, by also considering and including their ecological and ecotoxicological implications. We feel that in this concern there is a particular need of integrating fundamental and applied environmental research.
For more details see:
- Molecular Physiology and Environmental Toxicology
- Gene regulation and physiological performance in animals
- Mediainformation
In the field of fundamental research, we are interested in the following issues:
- Metal metabolism, regulation and detoxification (mostly in invertebrates) and their ecological implications
- Structural and functional adapations of metallothionein isoforms to metal- and cell-specific tasks (especially in mollusks)
- Structure and regulation of metallothionein genes and their involvement in environmental stress response
- The importance of resistance and detoxification meachanisms for microevolution in invertebrates.

In the field of applied research, we want to foucus on the following issues:
- Fluxes and distribution of pollutants in ecosystems
- The role of physiological mechanisms (of mostly invertebrates) for the mobilisation, availability and accumulation of environmental pollutants in food webs
- Invertebrates and invertebrate cell lines as models for monitoring environmental stressors
- Development of molecular and biochemical biomarkers for monitoring pollutant exposure.
