Overview
About the program
Our Molecular Biology research at Heidelberg University aims at fundamental questions of molecular and cellular biology at the level of molecules, cells and organisms.
Joint research interests resulted in the formation of the DKFZ-ZMBH-Alliance, a close collaboration of the ZMBH with the research program Cell and Tumor Biology of the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ).
