My research interest focuses on biomembrane dynamics. For that purpose, I investigate the diffusive behavior of lipids and proteins on model membrane systems such as supported lipid bilayers and giant unilamellar vesicles. I aim to optimize iSCAT for membrane-related tracking applications.

Martin Blessing studied Molecular Medicin (BSc) and Biochemistry (MSc) at Ulm University from 2010 to 2016.
