Good science requires excellent teamwork

We are always interested in collaborating with cell biologists, electron microscopists and neuroscientists working in fields connected with our research topics.

In particular, we aim to develop a network of collaborations investigating signalling and regulatory mechanisms in the extracellular matrix, sharing knowledge with experts worldwide who approach the same topic from different perspectives and with complementary research tools.

Through collaborations, we can translate the molecular insights generated by our research to the cellular level — and eventually also to in vivo model systems. This broadens the impact of our scientific data and strengthens their significance in the appropriate biological context.

Collaborations also stimulate exciting new research questions that can be addressed in future projects.

Keywords for collaboration

Interaction

The laboratory is a place where we share information and data. If we all teach, we all learn and improve. We support and promote interaction, discussion and teamwork among everyone in the laboratory.

Cooperation

Doing science means working together towards important objectives. When we work as a team, everyone gains knowledge from the results; problem-solving becomes easier and results are achieved more quickly.

Teamwork

We strongly believe that supporting one another as a team is a key to success, both within our laboratory and in our national and international collaborations.
