Dr. Evgeny Onischenko
Associate Professor, group leader
My main tasks in the group are design of research projects and supervision of students. But I also try to do some benchwork whenever possible to advance our knowledge of how cells make and break protein assemblies. I also teach courses in biochemistry and molecular biology.
