message

Universities are diverse environments. Take on various challenges, interact with various people, broaden your horizons, and thoroughly explore your “self” as a global citizen. Sometimes it may be important to stop, deviate from the road, or even run in the opposite direction (my life is always derailed...). I look forward to speaking with you. Please visit our laboratory.
