Expertise
Gonad development and stem cell biology in fish
Current research projects address specific problems in the field of Developmental and Reproductive Biology using fish as a vertebrate model system. We study the events of cell differentiation with modern genetic and cytological techniques. More...
Reproductive Toxicity
The depletion of germ line (stem) cells due to xenobiotic exposure can alter steroidogenesis and can lead to impaired gonadal function and infertility. We aim to establish an animal-free method for the evaluation of reprotoxic potentials of chemicals. More...
Hormonal Control
The Nile tilapia came into the focus of research to understand reproduction and physiology for effective growth in aquaculture. This african cichlid has become a valuable model for gonad development and to study the endocrine control of spermatogenesis along the brain-pituitary-gonad (BPG) axis. More...
