Research Interests

• Develloping systems theoretical methods and algorithms for biochemical reaction models
• Modelling biochemical processes
  • Modelling and analysis of signal transduction networks in mammalian cells and organisms
    (e.g. TNF induced apoptosis)
  • Modelling and analysis of the global regulation of the metabolism in E. coli
  • Modelling of the dynamics of the sponge Tethya wilhelma
• Image processing of fluorensence microscopy images towards quantitative and dynamic concentration measurements
• Control theory and control design
