My life/work motto
My motivation is curiosity and the joy of discovery.
My research
How are membranes structured and organized in cells, and how does the molecular architecture of membranes support cellular functions?
My particular skills/experiences
Electron microscopy, cell and structural biology.
My measures to promote diversity
Consistent implementation of the DORA Declaration, individual mentoring of female scientists, gender equality work. I try to be critical of unconscious bias in my own behavior - and constantly discover potential for improvement.
My recommendations for young female researchers on the academic career path
Always keep your focus on what brings you joy along this path. And don't be afraid to make uncomfortable or unconventional decisions!
