In the past years, AlphaFold has revolutionised protein science. This Artificial Intelligence (AI) tool was trained on protein data collected by life scientists for over 50 years, and is able to predict the 3D shape of…
Research Projects The central theme of our research is to understand how stochastic interactions of cells and molecules control the functional behaviour of multicellular systems. We specifically focus on how cells interact…
In certain infectious diseases, antibiotics are less effective than expected, as seen in infections caused by Salmonella bacteria, which can lead to illnesses such as typhoid fever. For many years, researchers believed that…
Molecule-Scale Resolution and Dynamics in Fluorescence Microscopy I will show how an in-depth description of the basic principles of diffraction-unlimited fluorescence microscopy has spawned MINFLUX [1-4], a recent…
Join us! Are you interested in becoming part of the team? Feel free to contact us anytime! We are looking for highly motivated and curious PhD students with a background in theoretical physics, computational biology, applied…
Context-aware computational models of molecular interactions Interactions of proteins with molecules in their biochemical environment give rise to their biological function. These interactions and their variation are key to…
This year, the Life Sciences Society LS2 honors the molecular biologist Dr. Claudia Keller Valsecchi, currently a research group leader at the Institute of Molecular Biology (IMB) in Mainz, for her outstanding achievements…
On Monday, August 26, 2024, the University Council appointed Claudia Keller Valsecchi as the new Assistant Professor of Molecular Biology with Tenure Track at the Biozentrum. Claudia Keller Valsecchi, currently research…
