Work History

PhD Student in the Field of Multiple Sclerosis

Universität Medical Göttingen

My research centers on understanding the impact of T cell-mediated ocular autoimmunity, specifically within the retina. In the context of Multiple Sclerosis (MS), T cells are pivotal players in both initiating and modulating the disease’s pathophysiology. By investigating the temporal and spatial roles of T cells within the central nervous system, including the retina, my goal is to uncover the key steps that lead to inflammatory processes..
