Methods
Biomimetic Lipid Membranes

We are using several model membrane systems:
- Supported Lipid Membranes
- Giant unilamellar Vesicles
- Phase Separated Lipid Membranes
- Topographically Molded Lipid Membranes
- Lipid Monolayers
Optical- and Soft Lithography

We are using Light Patterns to generate ...
- Microstructured biomimetic environments
- Microfluidic devices
- Surface micropatterns
Optogenetics and Light-Switchable Molecules

We are engineering biological objects with light-switchable properties.
Optical Microscopy Techniques
We are using optical methods, such as fluorescence microscopy techniques to image and quantitatively analyze the spatio-temporal dynamics of biological matter.
