How organelles develop in cells? The DFG funded 'Interfacial Cell biology' Emmy Noether Group investigates this question in the framework of the Professorship for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital Cologne of the University of Cologne.

Particularly, we focus on morphogenic processes that are mediated by contacts between emerging liquid compartments (also known as biomolecular condensates, membrane-less organelles or droplets) and conventional cellular structures such as membrane-bound organelles.
