Overview

He is an agricultural engineer and molecular biologist, specialised in neuroendocrinology and mycotoxicology. His laboratory focuses on investigating the effects of mycotoxins on animal health. His research focuses on the effects of mycotoxins on neuroendocrine and hormonal regulation as well as on reproductive cycles. Additionally, he examines the mechanisms by which mycotoxins disrupt reproductive functions at the cellular and molecular levels, and their role in animal health. Expanding her research to study the effects of mycotoxins on the wildlife microbiome.

The second research focus of his laboratory is the etiology of ulcerative colitis in rodent models. In addition, the laboratory is developing molecular therapeutic strategies to treat ulcerative colitis.

His expertise lies in molecular biology and biotechnology. He contributes complementary specialization in molecular microbiology to the research group.

Publications

He collaborates with the Department of Anatomy, Histology, and Embryology at Semmelweis University on research into the etiology of ulcerative colitis. His laboratory collaborates internationally with Prof. Zoltán Szállási at the Computational Health Informatics Program at Boston Children’s Hospital.
