Angelika Amon
Professor of biology
areas of expertise: cell cycle control, decoding cell division, microbiology, biochemistry and biophysics, cancer biology, chromosome mis-segregation, mitosis
Angelika Amon is a professor of biology and studies the molecular mechanisms that prevent chromosome mis-segregation and hence aneuploidy in mitosis and meiosis.
Her laboratory also investigates the consequences for cell growth and division when the mechanisms that ensure accurate chromosome segregation fail.
