Research
PhD project: Spin relaxation in ErCry4
Goal: Creating a computational model of spin relaxation in cryptochrome proteins which links the different spatial scales of the electron spin and its relaxation channels (interactions of atoms/radical pair, proteins, protein complexes).
Part of the SFB 1372 Sig05 "Structural and dynamical traits of avian cryptochromes"
Other interests: Spin relaxation in other sytems (e.g. a lipid bilayer)
