Welcome to our group!
We are an international group of researchers working across multiple disciplines to address key challenges in applied and fundamental life sciences. Our strong foundation in microfluidics, molecular biotechnology, and data analytics provides us with a unique combination of skills and experience to address analytical problems from different angles. We strongly believe that technological innovations constitute an essential part of biological research. This is particularly evident nowadays where innovations in molecular barcoding of RNA or DNA in single-cells enabled researchers to address fundamental questions that were previously out of reach. Our group is actively developing microfluidic and molecular biology tools, methods, and techniques to enable ultra-high-throughput multi-omic studies of single-cells. While molecular nucleic acid barcoding is our primary focus in the lab (1, 2), we are also actively working on other topics, including high-throughput screening of single-cell-producing monoclonal antibodies (3), directed evolution, single-genome amplification (4), and others.
