RESEARCH INTEREST
Investigation of different aspects of the structure and function of striated muscle. Deciphering molecular mechanisms of muscle plasticity and adaptation, both in physiological and stress conditions. Study of heart regeneration and skeletal muscle repair in zebrafish, with a focus on biological function and regulatory role of muscle ankyrin repeat stress sensors Ankrd1 and Ankrd2.
