CMMC, along with its partner institutes such as the Cologne Cluster of Excellence in Cellular Stress Responses in Aging-associated Diseases, Cologne Center for Genomics, and Max-Planck Institute for Biology of Ageing research, all located in the same campus, provides a vibrant scientific community. Therefore, the CMMC´s Asso. JRG I in "Developmental and regenerative RNA biology" is placed perfectly in an environment where fundamental research meets its cutting edge of translational science.
» Your future with usWorking at the University Hospital Cologne and the Medical Faculty means helping to shape the future - the future of medicine, of patients and, of course, your own future. You benefit from 59 clinics and institutes as well as numerous other departments and facilities and more than 10,000 jobs. The Faculty of Medicine of the University of Cologne and the University Hospital Cologne assume important social tasks in research, teaching and patient care. A close network with many university and non-university partners guarantees an internationally successful science and the excellent education of our students.
» Your future in detailThe is a multidisciplinary center at the University of Cologne providing a forum that brings together physician-scientists with fundamental researchers from the Faculty of Medicine and the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences to perform competitive basic, disease-oriented research. The mission of the CMMC is to advance the understanding of the underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms as a prelude to improving the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of many common health problems.

Research overview:
We are an RNA biology lab studying the fundamental principles governing the self-organization of an embryo and its disease implications. We focus on RNA regulatory elements (e.g: long non-coding RNAs, selective translation factors) that control the acquisition of cell fate and maintenance of cellular identity (Cell Stem Cell 2019, EMBO Reports 2019, Circulation 2015). We use a holistic approach that combines human pluripotent stem cell-based differentiation models, including organoids, genome engineering tools, and systems-wide methods such as eCLIP-seq and Ribo-seq.
