The Institute for Genetics
Founded in 1962 by Max Delbrück, the Institute for Genetics currently comprises 16 research groups and several independent early-career research groups that demonstrate excellence in research and teaching. Research at the Institute for Genetics covers a broad spectrum of topics, ranging from molecular and cell biology to computational biology. Molecular mechanisms at all levels are investigated in model organisms, cell cultures, and in silico. The institute provides access to shared infrastructure and central service units, enabling young researchers to work in an excellent international research environment at its two locations: the Center for Molecular Biosciences and the CECAD Research Center for Age-Related Diseases.
