Bridging scales, bridging disciplines
How cells form tissues has been the primary question driving research at the MPI-CBG since its inception. The common research principle of our groups at the…
Emergence in reconstituted systems
In addition to seeking to understand biology in living organisms, we exploit reconstituted systems where a few building blocks are brought together in vitro. The…
Physics and Mathematics
MPI-CBG is bringing physics, mathematics, computation and machine learning to solve biological questions. This interdisciplinary effort merges fundamental physics,…
From cells to organisms
The MPI-CBG was founded with the goal of bridging scales and bringing together cell and developmental biology. We focus on studying cell biological phenomena utilizing…
Physics and Mathematics of Living Systems
How do cells emerge from the interactions of molecules, and how do the properties of cells emerge from the interactions between individual cells?
We…
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…
