Lappalainen Pekka is a research director at Institute of Biotechnology, University of Helsinki, Finland. His main research interests include the small actin binding proteins twinfilin, Srv2/CAP and ADF/cofilin as well as the analysis of the roles of the actin cytoskeleton during various cellular
and developmental processes. He serves on the editorial board of Cell Motility and the Cytoskeleton and is a member of Faculty of 1000 cytoskeleton section
Pekka Lappalainen carried out his PhD-thesis work at EMBL-Heidelberg, Germany and did his post-DOC at University of California, Berkeley
