The rise of RNA viruses like SARS-CoV-2 highlights the need for new ways to fight them. RNA-targeting tools like CRISPR/Cas13 are powerful but inefficient in the cytoplasm of cells, where many RNA viruses replicate. Scientists from Helmholtz Munich…
Prof. Magdalena Götz about the fascinating research on reprogramming glia cells and cell replacement therapy in the field of brain injuries
Prof. Maria-Elena Torres-Padilla about empowering a team and her enthusiasm for epigenetics.
Prof. Dr. Magdalena Götz has been awarded this year's 150,000 euro science prize by the Hector Foundation. The jury is thus recognizing the neurobiologist's outstanding research achievements.
Researchers around Magdalena Götz from Helmholtz Munich have made strides in direct neuronal reprogramming. This innovative approach transforms non-neuronal cells, specifically astrocytes, into functional neurons. Investigating patient-derived cells,…
The Dynamic Journey of DNA Replication Timing and Its Impact on Cellular Plasticity
The intricate process of duplicating genetic information, referred to as DNA replication, lies at the heart of the transmission of life from one cell to another…
