Christina studied Chemistry at the University of Patras with focus on Biochemistry. For her thesis she studied the degradation of ECM in breast cancer cells. Interested in photopharmacology and protein labelling , she joined the FMP for her internship in the framework of the Erasmus+ Mobility for Traineeships program to work on photocontrolling GPCRs.
BLAISE GATIN-FRAUDET

PostDoc
Blaise studied chemistry at the University of Paris-Saclay and at the ENS Paris-Saclay. He obtained his PhD in 2020 in Chemical Biology under the supervision of Dominique Urban (ICMMO) and Boris Vauzeilles (ICSN). Then, he worked with Pierre-Yves Renard and Ludovic Jean at COBRA in Rouen. In 2023, he moved to Berlin to join Sigrid Milles' group and JB's lab to work on innovative labeling strategies for high resolution spectroscopic techniques.
