The Mayor laboratory is one of the leading laboratories, working on understanding basic cellular mechanisms that govern chemical, biophysical and mechanical properties of the cell membrane.
The Ernst laboratory is a leading laboratory investigating biophysical mechanisms that influence membrane protein structure involved in read-outs of membrane properties. MTI is at the forefront of developing molecular tools for imaging.
These laboratories study the crosstalk of proteins and lipids in health and disease, using interdisciplinary approaches at the cross-roads of cell biology, biochemistry, synthetic biology, imaging and biophysics.
