Our group is interested in elucidating how the mammalian (epi)genome is maintained throughout cell divisions and how the epigenetic information is translated into spatial chromatin structure and activity during differentiation, reprogramming and disease.
We make use of a variety of biochemical, molecular and cell biological methods with particular emphasis on advanced live-cell and super-resolution fluorescence microscopy.
In the course of our work, we develop new approaches to deliver macromolecules to living cells and establish tools including nanobodies to visualize subcellular structures and cell cycle progression in real time.
It was an absolute delight to attend the DNA damage and repair meeting at the SFB 1361 Conference.
Our students showcased their poster presentation and were thrilled to receive the prestigious best poster prize. Congratulations to all of them! 🎉
