Overview

About the programme

Prominent Biomedicine research areas at TU Dresden include immunology, metabolism, tumor biology, neuroscience, bone research, and germ-cell biology, and there is a special emphasis on stem- and progenitor-cell research.

To address the great complexity of basic and disease-related mechanisms and factors, we use a wide range of tools, including high-end microscopy and other imaging and cell-sorting methods, sophisticated mouse manipulation including humanized animal models, iPS and other stem cell technologies, molecular approaches, and innovative screening technologies.
