Fields of research
ETIS CLASSIFICATION: 1. Biosciences and Environment; 1.12. Biotechnology, Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, Biophysics and Economic and Technological Research relating to Bio- and Environmental Sciences; CERCS CLASSIFICATION: T490 Biotechnology ; SPECIFICATION: The current focus of my research is to investigate the role of cancer-testis antigens, especially MAGEA family proteins, in the development of malignant tumors. Our aim is to target MAGEA proteins for development of biological therapeutics against MAGEA-positive tumors. A second focus concerns methyltransferases, their characterization and role in cell proliferation.
