Research
The research in the department of Biochemistry concentrates on biochemical and structural studies on proteins derived from pathogens and their host cells to understand molecular mechanisms that are essential for various steps of the replication cycle. A second focus is the development of novel protein crystallization and diffraction data collection strategies.
Teaching
The Institute of Biochemistry continuously offers projects for bachelor and master theses to students of STEM subjects. The focus of these projects is on the biochemical and structural characterization of proteins associated with pathogenicity processes. We offer students the opportunity to work in individual research groups on current research projects, thereby applying and expanding the knowledge acquired during their studies in practice.
