Cancer biologist and immunologist Henning Walczak investigates cell death and ubiquitin in inflammation, cancer and (auto-)immunity.
Forschung
Research Groups
Lemberg Lab
The group of Marius Lemberg investigates cellular protein homeostasis mechanisms with a special focus on intramembrane proteolysis.
Höning Lab
Stefan Höning and his group focus on the structural and functional analysis of intracellular transport mechanisms, regulation of endocytosis and organelle biogenesis and the corresponding communication.
Knorr Lab
Die Forschungsgruppe von Roland Knorr untersucht zelluläre Prozesse, die auf Kapillarkräfte angewiesen sind. Schwerpunkte sind Entstehungsmechanismen von Organellen wie z.B. Autophagosomen.
Eichinger Lab
Ludwig Eichinger studies the mechanisms of autophagy and the non-canonical functions of core autophagy proteins in Dictyostelium discoideum.
Fenech Lab
The group of Emma Fenech investigates how specificity and functionality among secretory pathway homologs is determined.
Liccardi Lab
Gianmaria Liccardi’s work focuses on the cross talk between inflammation, cell cycle and tissue homeostasis in pathophysiological diseases.
Nüchel Lab
Julian Nüchel's research group is investigating the post-translational regulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) secretion and ECM homeostasis in the context of connective tissue and metabolic diseases.
Associated research groups
Brachvogel Lab
Bent Brachvogel (speaker of FOR2722) studies how epigenetic and metabolic factors control the communication of cells with the surrounding extracellular matrix to coordinate musculoskeletal tissue development and childrens mobility.
Koch Lab
The institute of Manuel Koch studies the physiological functions of connective tissues and its cells, using cell biological and biochemical methods with a focus on translational research.
Niehoff Lab
Anja Niehoffs group studies the basic mechanisms of bone and cartilage homeostasis and remodelling as well as the pathomechanisms of degeneration influenced by mechanical loading and unloading.
Niemann Lab
Catherin Niemann investigates molecular and cellular mechanisms controlling stem cell functions in tissue regeneration and cancer formation.
Schiavinato Lab
Molecular biologist and clinical pathologist Alvise Schiavinato studies biology and biochemistry of microfibrillar extracellular matrix proteins and their role in inherited diseases.
Sengle Lab
The main focus of the research of Gerhard Sengles group is to understand how the extracellular matrix regulates the bioavailability of growth factors.
Senior research groups (Emeriti)
Aumailley Lab
Monique Aumailley’s goal is to determine how basement proteins, in particular laminins, supervise cell fate.
Paulsson Lab
Protein chemist and extracellular matrix biologist Mats Paulsson studies the structure, assembly and function of extracellular suprastructures and their role in inherited musculoskeletal diseases.
Krieg Lab
This group aims to identify key mechanisms regulating fibroblast functions and their role in fibrosis and tissue repair.
