Biorecognition

Aurora Martinez - We investigate mechanisms behind biomolecular interactions and response in neurometabolic pathways, and we aim to develop novel therapeutics for correction of associated dysfunction.
Professor Ruth Brenk

Brenk lab

Ruth Brenk - The overall research goal of the Brenk lab is to improve methods used for structure-based drug design and to apply these methods to design inhibitors for enzymes with biological relevance. A key point in our research is the interplay of theoretical and experimental methods.

Molecular mechanisms of parasite motility

Inari Kursula - Our work is aimed at a mechanistic understanding of gliding motility, which malaria parasites and their relatives use for getting to and invading their host cells. We employ a broad range of biochemical, biophysical and hybrid structural biology methods for creating a complete...
protein structure

Structural neurobiology

Petri Kursula - We study protein structure and protein-membrane interactions, and we use molecules from the myelin sheath as a model system to understand the assembly of biomembranes.
