Dr. Alexander Schönhuth has been appointed Professor of Genome Data Science for one day per week at the Institute of Biodynamics and Biocomplexity

The selective transport process in neurons is made possible thanks to a highly refined, and completely unexpected, organisation of its road network

Scientists clarified the function of proteins that play a role in signal transmission between neurons. That leads to new insights into neurological disorders.

Oliveira was a awarded the grant for new therapy for head and neck cancer

Alexander Makarov, Professor by Special Appointment, has been elected as Fellow of the Royal Society, the UK’s national academy of sciences.

Utrecht scientists uncover on a molecular level why proteins form aggregates with the protein Tau, that plays a role in Alzheimer Disease.

Last Friday, minister Robbert Dijkgraaf opened the renewed Electron Microscopy Centre, which houses advanced equipment and brings together scientific disciplines.

MLS and Chemistry students of the course “Protein Folding & Assembly” organised a virtual international symposium with high quality speakers

Christian Kaiser is appointed as professor of Biophysical Chemistry of Membranes and Proteins in the Bijvoet Centre for Biomolecular Research.

A new powerful antibiotic, isolated from bacteria that could not be studied before, seems capable to combat harmful bacteria and even multi-resistant ‘superbugs’. The antibiotic appears to kill bacteria in an unusual way, making it more difficult for bacteria to develop any resistance against it.

The National Growth Fund invests 325 million euros in the Oncode-PACT plan to accelerate the preclinical development process of cancer drugs.

Insight into the killing mechanism of the antibiotic teixobactin will enable to design powerful antibiotics against which bacteria do not readily develop resistance.

The repair of the inner mantle protecting DNA in the cell nucleus, is done by one repair protein instead of several in a stepwise process.

Utrecht biochemists are refuting claims that have been published in Nature en PNAS for the past years: the amino acid histidine cannot pas on signals as an 'on-off switch' in mammalian cells.

Extraordinary detailed analysis has uncovered key cell elements that support sperm motion and rigidity. The discovery may lead to new directions for treating male infertility and developing male contraceptives.

Utrecht ľ�ϸ���Ӱ�� professor Albert Heck has been awarded the Wallace H. Coulter Lectureship. Heck receives the prestigious lectureship for his scientific impact and multiple breakthroughs.
