Research

As a gravitational biologist, I study the perception as well as influences of gravity and also weightlessness on life and its development. I am a plant physiologist by background with a minor in physics. Trichoplax is an ideal model organism for me to study the influence of gravity on the formation of polarities and the development of gravity perception. Other areas of my research include the development of bioregenerative systems for space applications and the design and construction of space experiments for several microgravity platforms.
