Institute of Molecular Biology Research profile of the department In our institute independent groups address basic questions concerning organ and tissue development and cell differentiation using the [...] mouse as model organism and a variety of modern biochemical, molecular genetic, and transgenic methods and technologies. The institute participates in the following study programs: BSc Biology, Leibniz-University
cell nuclei marked in green, the reticular nucleus of the thalamus. As two recent studies from the Institute of Cellular Chemistry show, a carbohydrate compound of the cell surface, polysialic acid, is essential [...] essential for the development of these nerve fibers. Similar to the mouse model, genetically determined deviations in polysialic acid synthesis and reduced connectivity of the cerebral cortex can also occur [...] in the research report are based on the information provided by the respective Facilities or Institutions.

impairs important signaling pathways and leads to human diseases, collectively referred to as ciliopathies. Disruption of motile cilia function in humans causes a subset of ciliopathies known as primary [...] homeostasis. Using the mouse as the animal model of choice and a combination of biochemical, molecular genetic and transgenic methods, we analyze the physiological roles of Notch signaling in different tissues [...] of these genes in mice leads to phenotypes that resemble parts or the entire spectrum of PCD in human patients (e.g. Weidemann et al. 2016, Beckers et al. 2018, 2020, Rachev et al. 2020). Several projects
between the Institute and the Central Animal Laboratory enable biomedical research to be combined with laboratory animal science topics . Examples of this are the establishment of genetic examination methods [...] Research At the Institute of Laboratory Animal Science, we deal with issues relating to animal welfare and the standardization of laboratory animals in line with the 3Rs principle as well as the chara

P 07) Qualification objectives The module teaches the basics of bacterial and viral pathogens in humans. Students learn about viral infection cycles in the cell as well as commensal and pathobiological [...] safety aspects of working with infectious agents in the S2 laboratory as well as the concepts of genetic engineering safety and the principles of virological methods in research and diagnostics.

Human heart-forming organoids recapitulate early heart and foregut development For the first time, MHH research group can use human stem cells to simulate early heart development in the cell culture dish [...] dish Scientists use so-called human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) to study the early stages of embryonic development in the cell culture dish. These are cells with special properties that can be reproduced [...] the Hannover Medical School (MHH), succeeded in tracing the entire path to the early stages of a human heart in cell culture for the first time. The research work is published in the renowned journal Nature

These occur more frequently with increasing age
