I am an Assistant Professor at the Department of Molecular and Clinical Genetics. I am interested in primary ciliary dyskinesia, which is a genetic disorder causing impaired movement of cilia present in different systems of human organism. In my research, I employ many methods, which use cells from respiratory epithelium, including in vitro ciliogenesis of primary respiratory epithelial cells, high-speed videomicroscopy (SAVA software) and immunofluorescent staining of ciliary proteins.
