Artmann, Carolin (MSc)

My research focuses on the dynamics of microtubules, particularly how their behavior is influenced by temperature. Using agent-based simulations, I investigate microtubule dynamics in tubulin from different frog species adapted to distinct thermal environments. My goal is to better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying these temperature-dependent differences.

Beyond the biological questions, I am interested in computational modeling and methods for improving the efficiency of simulation and data analysis, as well as parameter estimation and optimization.
