Research Projects
Early embryonic stem cells are totipotent. This means that they are capable of developing into cells of any tissue type in the Body. This makes them very interesting for regenerative medicine.
AIDS and malaria are among the world's most dangerous infectious diseases, and new drugs are urgently needed in sufficient quantities for their diagnosis and treatment.
With systems biology, a new method has become established in the medical research community. This method has turned the study of biological systems into a quantitative science.
The use of microorganisms in industrial processes is the key to solving climate and environmental challenges. Within a Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) funded project a solution for new detergents was found.
Genome research will help to develop new plant breeds. Under the roof a BMBF funded project researchers look for drought-resistant barley.
A group of researchers headed by Vasilis Ntziachristos from the Technical University and Hemholtz Center Munich have developed entirely new methods that allow studies to be carried out on living organisms.
