Autophagy in Cancer

Institute of Cell Biology (Tumor Research)
University Hospital Essen
Virchowstr. 173

Research Overview

The research focus of my group revolves around understanding the role of autophagy in cancer and exploring the use of autophagy modulating agents as potential therapeutic targets in tumors. We undertake a variety of approaches, from understanding basic molecular biology mechanisms in cell lines and patient samples to ultimately translate the findings into the clinic.
