I received a PhD in 1992 at the Biocenter of the University of Basel in the laboratory of Dr. Walter Keller where I studied the polyadenylation of mRNA precursors. As a postdoc I joined the laboratory of Dr. Thomas Cech at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute of the University of Colorado at Boulder where I started to work on telomerase. In 1997 I joined ISREC with a START-fellowship from the Swiss National Science Foundation and was promoted to senior scientist in 2002.
The long-term goal of our research is to understand the mechanism and regulation of telomere maintenance. We combine in vitro biochemistry, molecular genetics and cell biology to study telomere replication in human cells and in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. | Home page
