Stefanie Weidtkamp-Peters

Professor Stefanie Weidtkamp-Peters is a faculty member at Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf, where she leads the Center for Advanced Imaging (CAi) and drives innovation in bioimaging infrastructure. Her research integrates advanced microscopy, data management, and molecular analysis.

Key research domains include:

• Development of high-resolution imaging systems (e.g., confocal/STED microscopy)
• In vivo analysis of membrane protein dynamics
• Research data infrastructure for national consortia like NFDI4BIOIMAGE
• Interdisciplinary applications in microbial metabolism and plant science

She spearheads major grants and equipment acquisitions:

• DFG-funded expansion of CAi as a central microscopy platform
• Leadership in NFDI4BIOIMAGE and DataPLANT initiatives
• Procurement of specialized systems: high-pressure freezers, fluorescence lifetime microscopes
