Niels Krämer

I recently defended my PhD in the Spalding Lab with a thesis titled "Adipocyte plasticity in health and disease" [1]. I rejoined the group [2] to continue work on some of the questions that materialised during my doctoral projects. I am particularly interested in adipocyte plasticity under different physiological conditions and study this using a range of molecular biology and computational tools. You are equally likely to find me behind a microscope, in the cell culture lab or behind a computer.  

I have additional work experience in the lab of Dr. Mark Huising [3] at UC Davis and in the lab of Dr. Klaas Mulder at the Radboud Institute for Molecular Life Sciences [4]. For my work in the Huisin Lab I won the prize for “Best M.Sc. thesis of the faculty of Science 2020” at the 
Radboud University Nijmegen
