M.Sc. Michael Trumpp
Michael earned his Master of Science degree in Biochemistry from Freie Universität Berlin in November 2022. For his Master's thesis, he collaborated with the Winkler Lab at the National University of Singapore, where he laid the groundwork for a novel Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP) Medaka animal model. Subsequently, he was awarded a scholarship from the International Max Planck Research School for Biology and Computation (IMPRS-BAC), enabling him to join the Knaus Lab fully as a PhD student in 2023. His doctoral research centers on investigating BMP receptor activation and interaction mechanisms, utilizing BMP manipulation and labelling with fluorophores as well as dimerization tools developed and synthesized in collaboration with the Broichhagen Lab at FMP-Buch.
