Activities

Third-party funded PhD student (SNF) with a focus on the bioinformatic analysis of prokaryotic genomes, with the goal of identifying novel, functionally relevant unannotated proteins with proteomics (proteogenomics) and thereby improving the genome annotation

Thematic focus
Prokaryotes, unannotated proteins, small proteins, plant-microbe interactions

Methodical focus
Proteomics, genomics, proteogenomics, integrated data analysis, unravel mechanisms of action
