Prof. Dr. Pitter Huesgen

Pitter's publications
Team leader / PI
After undergraduate studies in chemistry, Pitter´s interest turned to biochemistry and proteolysis. Graduate studies on plant Deg/HtrA proteases in Stockholm, Sweden, and Konstanz, Germany, involved a quest for their physiological substrates. Determined to solve this problem, Pitter spent an extended Postdoc in Vancouver, BC, Canada, figuring out how to do so with fancy instrumentation. Since 2014, he is a team leader at ZEA-3 at Forschungszentrum 
Jülich and, since 2019, additionally tenured Professor for Protein Dynamics and Proteolysis at CECAD at the University of Cologne.

Andreas Perrar

Andreas´ publications
PhD student
Andreas studied Biology at the University of Cologne and soon became fascinated by plants. After graduating with BSc project on carotenoid production in microalgae he moved on to obtain a Master´s degree in plant sciences at the University of Bonn. During his graduate studies he gained insights into molecular, physiological and structural aspects of plants and the biodiversity and evolution of embryophytes. After graduating with a MSc project involving  NextGen sequencing, Andreas decided to change fields again and to learn more about proteomics and plant-pathogen interactions.
