Max Perutz Labs Vienna

The Max Perutz Labs are a joint venture between @univienna and @MedUni_Wien, dedicated to a mechanistic understanding of fundamental biomedical processes.

Long before the Max Perutz Labs were officially founded in 2005, a group of ambitious young molecular biologists - some of them shown below - dreamed of creating a research institute to unite the strengths of scientists in a cross-university initiative 🙌

👏 Big congrats to Elif Karagöz on her tenure! Since launching her lab in 2019, her team has been uncovering the secrets of protein homeostasis. Elif opens up about what it takes to lead a lab, stay driven by research and support the scientists of tomorrow in her #SuccessStory 🎥

Paper alert! 📢 RNA-protein interactions are well-documented, but their relationship with biological coding has remained elusive 🔎 In @PNASNews, the Žagrović lab uncovered specific examples of RNA-protein interactions embedded within the genetic code ➡️ https://t.co/mQ7PmYjSU7
