Prof. Thomas Czerny´s main area of research is cell signaling. At FH Campus Wien he started with the exploitation of the highly sensitive signaling processes in the cell for the detection of external factors like stress andtoxins. He developed luciferase-based reporter cell lines for the sensitive detection of cellular stress, type 4 allergy and mutagenic compounds and applied these tools to the analysis of medical devices and food packaging. He has extensive experience in teaching and supervised 13 PhD students.
