der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München ADENO-ASSOCIATED VIRUS DISPLAY: IN VITRO EVOLUTION OF AAV RETARGETED VECTORS

Abstract

I thank Prof. Dr. Michael Hallek for giving me the chance to join his research group in Munich, for constant and valuable scientific advice and for personal support during these years. Also I thank Prof. Dr. Horst Domdey for supporting my thesis, and Prof. Dr. Rudolph Grosschedl, director of the Gene Center of the LMU Munich. The outstanding organization of the institute was the basis for the success of my research project. All this work would have not been as successful and exciting without the collaboration of all my friends and colleagues of the Hallek group and of the Gene Center of the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich and of the GSF Hematologikum, Munich. A special thank goes to Dr. Hildegard Büning, Dr. Jörg Enssle, Dr. Anne Girod, Dr. Martin Ried Dr. Susan King, Dr. Christian Kurzeder, Simon Jedrusiak and David Kofler for stimulating discussions and practical help. Finally I thank my parents, sisters and Monica for continuous support over a life span. 3 Im Verlauf dieser Arbeit wurden folgende Veröffentlichungen angefertigt:
