Institute of Molecular Toxicology and Pharmacology

We aim at understanding the molecular machines by which our organism responds to bioactive chemicals and how this translates into benefit or harm to us. A key ambition is to generate the knowledge for the development of innovative, efficient and safe drugs.

About our Research

Our research targets the interface between biomedicine and chemistry from complementary perspectives. Specific projects may start from:

elicited by a small chemical in mice or man

pathways

for novel chemical matter that could address a promising pharmacologic target

screens to unravel the mechanism behind a physiological response to a chemical challenge

Göttlicher Group

Our research aims at identifying novel targets for small molecules that could modulate intermediary metabolism in order to control body weight or pathologies associated with metabolic disorders such as metabolic syndrome, steatosis hepatis or diabetes.

Zischka Group

We focus on Mitochondrial Damage upon diverse aspects of cell-toxic conditions in human disease, e.g. metabolic diseases, neurodegeneration, cancer, organ failure.
