Vici grant awarded to Alexander Kros (test)
For his research proposal "Understanding membrane fusion at the molecular level using a biomimetic model system" Alexander Kros has been awarded a Vici grant as part of NWO's Innovation Research Incentives scheme.
The transport of molecules is crucial for living cells, but it is also very complex. Based on a biomimetic model system devised by the researchers themselves, this research project will examine the controlled transport of incoming and outgoing molecules at molecular level. This knowledge can be applied, for example, in targetting medicines at exactly the right place.
