Departments

Research in the Department of Biochemistry and Synthetic Metabolism centers on the discovery and design of novel enzymes and metabolic pathways, as well as their transplantation and evolution in natural and artificial cells (e.g., for the sustainable conversion of the greenhouse gas COwith artificial photosynthesis). The Department is headed by Prof. Dr. Tobias J. Erb. [more]
Research in the Department focuses on understanding how intracellular signalling networks are wired to allow bacteria to adapt and differentiate in response to changes in the environment or in response to self-generated signals. The Department is headed by Prof. Lotte Søgaard-Andersen. [more]
Research in the Department of Natural Products in Organismic Interactions centers on the ecological function of microbial natural products using entomopathogenic nematodes and their bacterial symbionts as model system. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. Helge B. Bode. [more]
Research in the Department of Systems and Synthetic Microbiology aims to elucidate structure and function of intra- and intercellular networks that control microbial behavior, to understand underlying physical principles, and to design of novel cellular networks. The Department is headed by Prof. Dr. Victor Sourjik. [more]
