2021 HFSP Nakasone Award for Anthony Hyman and Clifford Brangwynne
Award for discovery phase-separated macromolecule condensates
We are the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics (MPI-CBG)
We do pioneering basic research. 500 curiosity-driven scientists from over 50 countries ask: How do cells form tissues? Our research programs span multiple scales of magnitude, from molecular assemblies to organelles, cells, tissues, organs, and organisms.
We are live at our booth at the Virtual Career Fair until 12pm today! Get in touch and find out about career options at the intersection of physics, computerscience, and biology @csbdresden! @mpicbg @imprs_mpicbg @tudresden_de @TudCms #MPIPKS ubivent.com/register/STEM-… twitter.com/csbdresden/sta…

I’m a male scientist. My first mentor as a budding scientist was the wonderful Eli Knust @mpicbg. My mentor as a starting faculty member was the amazing Joanne Chory @salkinstitute. My research wouldn’t be anywhere near where it is today without these two women. twitter.com/watermicrobe/s…

📣 New from @CellStemCell
Dr. Germán Belenguer from @mpicbg & @UV_EG shows that peripherally induced inflammation promotes a transient activation of primed #NeuralStemCells mediated by tumor necrosis factor α acting through its receptor.
