Biological Crystallization Mechanisms
- Study the development and cell biology of crystal-forming cells in model organisms (zebrafish, medaka) and exotic species (Copepods, Chameleon, Geckos).
- Study pathological crystallization (i.e. gout disease and kidney stones) and develop new therapeutic approaches.
- Discover and characterize new bio-crystals.
- Investigate novel crystal-based biological optical systems.
