Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden
| Professor Freeman is an internationally recognized biochemist who has made important contributions on the roles and mechanisms of proteins that protect our cells, the so-called heat shock proteins. He has made seminal discoveries from the early recognition of some heat shock proteins serving as molecular chaperones for protein folding, to more recent insights on the roles of molecular chaperones in coordinating the dynamic of gene expression and genome stability. During his stay in Germany, he will expand his studies on the effects of molecular chaperones with DNA-associated proteins by incorporating biophysical approaches to gain more rigorous mechanistic insights. |
