Stefan Golfier wins the FameLab Germany 2021
MPI-CBG PhD student in first place in world’s leading science communication competition
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.
For Meritxell Huch, the establishment of organoids is opening up opportunities for biomedical research applications from cellular sources for cell therapy or transplantation to drug screening platforms for personalized medicine #NBTat25 go.nature.com/3bLEprk
