    Systems Biology and Epigenetics

    Our research group is focused on the field of molecular systems biology, applying approaches like epigenomics and transcriptomics. We employ cutting-edge data analysis and integration techniques, including statistical methods, machine learning, and network-based approaches, to unravel the complexities of biological systems in health and disease.

    Research

    Numerous diseases are caused by a dysfunctional cellular signal transduction. Thus, the Signal Transduction group works on the understanding of cellular signalling pathways and its underlying molecular mechanisms, a crucial step for the development of novel drugs targeting cellular communication pathways.

    Research

    Understanding molecular mechanisms that govern cellular communication and signaling in the healthy organism as well as in pathological conditions, such as inflammation and cancer, is a prerequisite for the development of targeted therapeutic intervention. To this end, the MDM Group currently focuses on the molecular mechanisms that govern colorectal cancer and its resistance to therapies.

    Research

    Novel therapies for cancer and rare diseases called RASopathies are urgently needed. In both cancer and RASopathy research cell proliferation is typically analysed. However, RAS also impacts on cell differentiation, which generates and repairs the various tissues we have in our bodies. We aim at elucidating the fundamental role of RAS in this process.
