Research synopsis
I began my scientific life as a cellular immunologist. 听I then switched to cell biology and developmental neurobiology, mainly focusing on the intrinsic and extrinsic molecular mechanisms that control the development and behaviour of myelinating glial cells and retinal cells.
听
I retired from laboratory science in 2002, but remained on various scientific advisory boards until 2019. I also remained a co-author of two cell biology textbooks鈥�Essential Cell Biology听(until 2019) and听Molecular Biology of the Cell听(until 2022).
