Justus Alfred Kromer
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Neurosurgery
BioJustus Kromer's research is devoted to improving deep brain stimulation techniques causing long-lasting symptom relief in patients suffering from neurological disorders, e.g. Parkinson's disease. Being a theoretical physicist in the group of Peter Tass, Justus Kromer performs computer simulations in order to understand stimulation-induced rewiring of synaptic connectivity in symptom-related brain regions.
During his PhD studies at Humboldt University in Berlin, Germany, he gained expertise in the fields of stochastic processes, nonlinear dynamics, and computational neurosciences. He was trained in both, computational studies and theoretical modelling. His general research is devoted to understanding and manipulating noisy nonlinear systems with application to biology such as neuronal networks and signal processing systems, e.g. sensory neurons and chemotactic agents. -

Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Comparative Medicine
BioI started working in wildlife conservation and veterinary science over 10 years ago as a volunteer working in marine mammal rehabilitation. My current work focuses on marine mammal research, conservation, and applications within the one health and conservation medicine framework.

Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Structural Biology
BioMy background is deeply rooted in structural biology and biochemistry of proteins and RNA. My current research focuses on understanding the regulatory role of RNA structures in HIV infection. To this end, I am focusing on revealing the conformational landscape of viral RNA during reverse transcription. I am also devoted to promoting science education and outreach.

Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy project involves reprogramming of induced pluripotent stem cells from skin biopsies obtained from Anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION) patients. My ultimate goal is to differentiate AION iPSCs into retinal ganglion cells and devise new treatment for this disease.
