Associate Director RNA Protein Replacement Therapies, BioNTech SE, Mainz.

"At CeMM, I started my work on RNA, and I am happy that I could apply so much of what I learned at CeMM later during my work at the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research and at BioNTech SE where 'Science is our Medicine' became so clearly exemplified during the development of the first COVID-19 vaccine. What I especially like is the amazing creativity and atmosphere built by CeMMies through the years, which are always there. I wish all the CeMMies to maximally enjoy their time at CeMM and to have great success pioneering molecular medicines of the future."
