The research group Philippar is interested in structure and function of metabolite- and ion-transport proteins within the plant cell.

A research focus is on:

• Model systems: Arabidopsis thaliana, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
• Membrane transport proteins in the envelope membranes of chloroplasts
• Transport and metabolism of fatty acids and lipids
• Transport and homeostasis of iron in plants
• Structure/function relations of membrane proteins
