Kornmann Lab

Our lab is interested in fundamental questions of cell biology and biochemistry of organelles. We use the powers of yeast genetics as a tool to discover importa

Our new preprint is out!
Phospholipids (PLs) are made a bit everywhere in cells and then transported by hosts of pathways we don't know of, a system full of redundancies and compensatory mechanisms. Here we set out to discover some of them. #followme

Sabine brilliantly defended her PhD thesis.

Huge congratulations!

Last ETH-affiliated student of the lab, and of an era.

[Kornmann Lab @KornmannLab]

We have a fully funded PhD project to study antifungal resistance in collaboration with Syngenta.

Exciting opportunity to join us in Oxford and have a foot in the door of industry with twelve weeks at Syngenta Switzerland!

[Kornmann Lab @KornmannLab]

We have received an Investigator Award grant from the Wellcome trust.

We are therefore hiring. Get in touch if you want to work on the fascinating question of how lipid molecules traffic through the cell, and join the fantastic environment at Oxford Biochemistry.

@peterka_m brilliantly defended his PhD thesis today.
Many congratulations to him!

[Kornmann Lab @KornmannLab]

Carmelina's review had just been accepted in current opinion in cell biology.
Congrats!

[Kornmann Lab @KornmannLab]

@mitochondrista 's review on mechanical forces on organelles will appear soon in @J_Cell_Sci .
Congratulations to her!

[Kornmann Lab @KornmannLab]

Our latest preprint is out! It is about disrupting CENP-F/Miro interaction in mice using CRISPR/Cas9 genome-editing.

Congratulations to Martin!
