In biology, the development of cryo-electron microscopy triggered a revolution. Already in 2015, this technique was selected as the “Research Method of the Year” and last year the Nobel Committee in Stockholm awarded the…
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…
Spatial Sequencing of Host-Microbiome Interactions Microbe-microbe and host–microbe interactions are central to the functioning of the human microbiome, but few tools are available to measure these interactions spatially…

The kids@science study week at the University of Basel, introduced in 2008, is very popular among the young researchers. This year, some 120 school children have applied to participate. At the end of January, 81 will receive…
Vertebrate Development and Behavior → Schierlab Although scientific knowledge has advanced enormously in the last thirty years, we still only superficially understand how a single fertilized egg cell develops to form a…
"From 1971 to 1978 Jacques carried out research at the Biozentrum and in 1974 he received his PhD from Eduard Kellenberger, one of the founders of the Biozentrum of the University of Basel. To the very last, the two had a…
Individual visual stimuli are not processed independently by our brain. Rather neurons exchange incoming information to form a coherent perceptual image from the myriad of visual details impinging on our eyes. How our visual…
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…
Oliver Biehlmaier, Head of Imaging Core Facility For 14 years, the Biozentrum has had its Imaging Core Facility (IMCF) – and for 14 years, it has been led by Oliver Biehlmaier. The IMCF was among the first technology…
