Researchers at the Max Planck Institute of Biophysics and the University of Cologne developed a new optical tool to study ferroptosis, a form of iron-driven cell death. Better understanding of how it spreads could open doors to new therapies.
On February 5, 2024, we participated in the “Frankfurt Stands Up for Democracy” demonstration, standing alongside nearly 20,000 participants representing over 100 institutions, organizations, and companies across the Frankfurt region.
The Max Planck Institute of Biophysics is part of the new science network Frankfurt Alliance together with 15 other research institutions in the Rhine-Main metropolitan area
