As a Professor of Molecular Stem Cell Biology, Fiona Doetsch from the Biozentrum, University of Basel, bridges the world of stem cells and the world of neuroscience. In the funded ERC research project, Doetsch and her team…
The brain is malleable well into adulthood. Brain plasticity is not only due to the formation of new nerve connections. Stem cells present in the adult brain also generate new nerve cells. For more than a hundred years,…
Today, the EMBO announced the election of Prof. Fiona Doetsch, research group leader at the Biozentrum of the University of Basel, as a new member. This year, 63 scientists from 25 different countries, three being from…
Recognizing their offspring by smell ensures animal parents can nurture their own young. The research group led by Prof. Fiona Doetsch at the Biozentrum, University of Basel, has now demonstrated in mice that new nerve cells…
Our brain generates new neurons throughout life. A diversity of stimuli promotes stem cells in their niche to form neurons that migrate to their place of action. In an animal model Prof. Fiona Doetsch’s team at the…
The Biozentrum organizes a symposium for its employees and students annually. This provides an insight into other areas of research, as well as an overview of the many projects being carried out. Furthermore, the symposium…
This event brings together researchers from the Biozentrum and the Roche Division “Pharmaceutical Research and Early Development” (pRED) and provides them with a platform for scientific exchange, to explore new collaboration…
The restrictions resulting from the ongoing coronavirus pandemic impact each of us in our daily work. But the crisis also sparks resourcefulness. The Biozentrum Symposium, for example, was completely re-designed and moved to…
