My PhD project is focused on uncovering the structure–function interactions between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria. My research aims to elucidate how the physical and functional coupling between these two essential organelles contributes to cellular homeostasis and signaling. Through a combination of advanced microscopic techniques, molecular biology, and biochemical approaches I seek to provide new insights into the mechanisms governing inter-organelle communication and its implications for health and disease.
