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
The fellow program promotes cooperation between Max Planck Institutes and outstanding professors at universities. From March 2024, Müller-McNicoll will lead a small research group at the MPI in Frankfurt for five years to investigate RNA, the carrier of genetic information in the cell, and its regulation.
