Project: "Cell Cycle Control and the regulation of DNA replication in fission yeast EMBL, Heidelberg, Gene Expression Program, Group Leader Bertrand Seraphin Project: "Identification and characterization of the human Pop1 protein: an autoantigenic protein subunit of RNase P and RNase MRP ribonucleoprotein complexes AWARDS: PhD. EMBL Heidelberg, Gene Expression Program, Group: Iain Mattaj, Supervisor Bertrand Seraphin. Project: Studies of the composition, biogenesis and function of snrnp particles in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae PhD (Dr Rer Nat) awarded by the University of Heidelberg (Magna cum laude) Diploma. Department of Biology, University of Athens, Greece. Grade Excellent : Diploma Research, National Hellenic Research Foundation, Athens, Greece SET-Routes University Ambassador (2007-) EMBO Young Investigator 2001 Awards from the State Scholarship Foundation for every year of University Studies ( ) RESEARCH ACTIVITIES: PI of a team studying cell cycle control, currently numbering 9 members. We study the control mechanisms which safeguard genomic stability by ensuring once per cell cycle replication in eukaryotic cells and how defects in this control may lead to tumorigenesis. To this end, we combine: molecular-cell biology studies in human cells, genetic studies in fission yeast, analyses of tumour specimens, advanced live cell imaging and modelling of biological networks.
