Our group is interested on understanding lipid diversity and uncovering new lipid functions in cell biology with a focus on membrane trafficking events.
Our MetaCrystal project aims to uncover how membranes regulate crystal formation, function, and shape in zebrafish—a fundamental biological process with applications in disease, biomaterials, and optics.
In collaboration with the group of Dr. Unai Silvan (BCMaterials) we are investigating the crosstalk between mechanosensitive pathways and lipid metabolism.
