Stem cells in the adult mammalian brain Stem cells in the adult mammalian brain continuously give rise to new neurons that functionally integrate into circuits in restricted brain regions. They reside in specialized…
Principles of intracellular organization Correct intracellular localization of proteins and mRNA ensures cell survival. Specific localization of these molecules allows the development of multicellular organisms such as…
Unraveling the functioning and evolution of genome-wide regulatory networks Gene regulatory networks underlie much of the characteristic complex behaviors of biological systems. They allow single-celled organisms to "act on…
Imaging Core Facility Light microscopy is of great importance in all fields of biological research. The Imaging Core Facility of the Biozentrum is a technology platform for the use of highly developed light microscopes. Our…
The Ambizione fellow Dr. Janani Durairaj , project leader in the research group of Prof. Torsten Schwede, will study the protein universe of viruses in more detail. Viruses have evolved diverse pathogenic mechanisms and…
Molecular Systems Biology of the Synapse Brain function relies on communication among neurons via specialized junctions called synapses - tiny structures (~1 cubic micrometer) that are housed in the expansive axonal and…
Main Content Ambizione Fellows Marc van Oostrum Protein networks controlling brain function Simon van Vliet Complex dynamics of microbial communities Florent Waltz Biology and evolution of mitochondria Fengjie Wu Using NMR…
“The ball is rolling” December 2024 This also describes Henri Saenz’s life. We met the Biozentrum alumnus in Allschwil, in the Alba building. On the 9th floor. The view is breathtaking – from the Black Forest to the Vosges,…
TOR signaling and the control of cell growth Cell growth is a highly regulated, plastic process controlled by TOR-dependent pathways in response to nutrients, growth factors and energy. TOR is a major controller of cell…
Drug-microbe interactions Our lab uses high-throughput methods and develop systematic approaches to probe how environmental cues and genetic background influence antibiotic activity against Gram-negative bacteria. I will…
