Full Professor . The goal of the Fernandez Busnadiego lab is to unravel the structural basis of fundamental cellular mechanisms , as well as their alterations in human disease . To that end , we employ multidisciplinary approaches pivoting on state of the art cryo electron tomography see e.g. B uerlein et al . , Cell 2017 ; Guo et al . , Cell 2018 ; Collado et al . , bioRxiv 2019 . . Protein aggregates are often found in neuronal cells of patients suffering from neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer 's or Parkinson 's . However , little is known about the morphological characteristics of these aggregates in their native environment . Our group seeks to understand the detailed structure and cellular interactions of protein aggregates within optimally preserved cells to gain insights into their mechanisms of toxicity . To that end we employ cryo electron tomography , a technique that allows 3D visualization of the cell interior at molecular resolution .
