Detection and Diagnostics

We apply and further develop instrumental and bioanalytical methods and technologies for the detection of individual substances. These are used in the environmental and food sectors and online, as well as for process monitoring in the life sciences. By developing new methods in laboratory diagnostics we help to ensure safe and efficient healthcare.

Section Biochemistry

Cancer cells commonly display a high level of genome instability, which frequently goes along with alterations in the DNA damage response, such as the downregulation of certain DNA repair factors and the dependence on other, alternative, DNA repair pathways. Such a dependence renders cancer cells susceptible to the treatment with inhibitors of specific DNA repair factors. Our aim is to identify suitable therapeutic targets and to develop novel inhibitors of DNA repair proteins.
