The Scientific Collaborator 2 will manage a quantitative mass spectrometry (“‘omics”) platform at the University of Geneva.
Some viruses can get inside cells via a mechanism that involves sulfur organic molecules. An NCCR team has discovered effective inhibitors and blocked the uptake of SARS-CoV-2.
With this Synergy Grant, they will study the dynamics of water fluxes, curvature and tension in cellular membranes.
Created in close relationship between the UNIGE and a passionate team from the NCCR Chemical Biology, this course targets a large spectrum of students in science, scientists and science educators.
Excellence in Research,
Interdisciplinarity,
New Chemical Tools, Education & Screening Platform for Switzerland.
The NCCR Chemical Biology is an internationally recognised centre of excellence in research in a new interdisciplinary field: chemical biology.
Our mission is to develop new tools and approaches derived from chemistry in order to understand, visualize and control biological processes. We are also engaged in a platform for chemical screening aimed at developing a new generation of molecules with biological effects.
We also organize a Master programme in Chemical Biology, covering molecular and cellular biology, organic chemistry as well as biophysics at the University of Geneva and the EPFL.
