Dana Reichmann
WG1 Leader
danare@mail.huji.ac.il
Dana Reichmann is an Associate professor at the Department of Biological Chemistry at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Her research is dealing with understanding how microorganisms (yeast and bacteria) maintain their “healthy” and complex proteome during stress conditions. To achieve this goal, the Reichmann lab is utilizing and developing an extensive toolbox of technologies which are able to quantify changes on cellular and molecular levels, including in-vivo fluorescence-based sensors, and mass spectrometry based techniques such as redox and structural proteomics.
Younes Smani
WG2 Leader
ysma@upo.es
Younes Smani is a professor of microbiology at the University of Pablo de Olavide (Seville, Spain). His research interests span from the identification of new therapeutic targets in the bacterial outer membrane, new antimicrobial resistance mechanisms, to the development of new approaches for the treatment of bacterial infections.
Carole Devaux
WG3 Leader
carole.devaux@lih.lu
Carole Devaux is a senior researcher at the Luxembourg Institute of Health focusing on translational research in infectious diseases. Her work spans over the development of immunoassays and in vivo models of infection to the development of immunotherapeutics against pathogens.
Didem ŞEN KARAMAN
