Next article Johannes Letzkus
Johannes grew up in Germany where he graduated in biology from the University of Mainz. During his studies the fascination with the intricate complexity of central nervous systems became his predominant interest. Accordingly, the topic of his Diploma Thesis was spontaneous synaptic activity in Drosophila cell culture. Johannes then searched the internet for a PhD in cellular neuroscience of the mammalian brain and found the John Curtin School of Medical Research, one of the most distinguished institutes in that field. In retrospect he counts himself lucky since the high level of expertise combined with a very friendly and inclusive atmosphere make work both fun and rewarding, while the gorgeous Australian landscapes with bush, mountains and coast provide great leisure opportunities.
