  • 2023 - Research.com Biology and Biochemistry in Belgium Leader Award

Overview

Mathieu Bollen is affiliated with KU Leuven in Belgium and has a research focus primarily within the broad field of Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology. Their work spans several subfields including Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, Immunology, Genetics, and Plant Science.

Bollen's scientific contributions cover multiple main topics, notably:

  • Microtubule and mitosis dynamics
  • Virus-based gene therapy research
  • RNA research and splicing
  • Chromosomal and genetic variations
  • DNA repair mechanisms
  • Protein kinase regulation and GTPase signaling
  • Ubiquitin and proteasome pathways

Their recent publications demonstrate interdisciplinary research interests across molecular and cellular mechanisms. Selected recent papers include:

  • "Intracellular delivery of protein drugs with an autonomously lysing bacterial system reduces tumor growth and metastases," 2021, Nature Communications
  • "De Novo Variants in LMNB1 Cause Pronounced Syndromic Microcephaly and Disruption of Nuclear Envelope Integrity," 2020, The American Journal of Human Genetics
  • "Protein phosphatase 1 regulates atypical mitotic and meiotic division in Plasmodium sexual stages," 2021, Communications Biology
  • "Towards Dissecting the Mechanism of Protein Phosphatase-1 Inhibition by Its C-Terminal Phosphorylation," 2020, ChemBioChem
  • "Co-regulation of the antagonistic RepoMan:Aurora-B pair in proliferating cells," 2020, Molecular Biology of the Cell

Publishing consistently in high-impact venues, Bollen frequently appears in journals such as Nature Communications and bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory). Other venues include the FEBS Journal, Journal of Investigative Dermatology, and The American Journal of Human Genetics.

Collaboration is a notable aspect of Bollen's work, with frequent co-authors including Sarah Lemaire, Aleyde Van Eynde, Gerd Van der Hoeven, Zander Claes, and Xinyu Cao, reflecting ongoing partnerships within their research community.
