Group Ankarklev
Research groupOur team studies the biology underlying malaria transmission, with the ultimate goal of enabling novel strategies to hamper the spread of the disease
Group Barragan
Research groupOur current research on the pathobiology of parasitic infections integrates molecular parasitology with immunology and cell biology to understand how obligate intracellular parasites interact with the host.
Group Bengtsson
Research groupObesity is a major inducer of type II diabetes and it is estimated by the World Health Organization that over 500 million people worldwide suffer from either of these disorders, with the incidence increasing dramatically over the last 10 years.
Group Bryant
Research groupWe aim to create a universal molecular framework, where any molecule can be predicted with AI. With this technology, the design of new molecules will be possible at the click of a button – for any application.
Group Büttner
Research groupWe study how different organelles within a cell communicate and how this interorganellar connectivity contributes to protein homeostasis and cellular fitness during aging.
Group Dai
Research groupRegulation of cell fate decision is fundamental to development, disease, and regeneration. We address how gene regulatory systems guide the assembly of complex biological patterns by investigating stem cell biology and cell fate decision mechanisms.
Group Deng
Research groupWe explore the intricate relationship between genetics and environmental factors in shaping offspring health. By studying germline development, placental function, and the impact of early-life exposures, we aim to uncover how parental health influences disease risk across generations.
Group Engström
Research groupWe study gene expression with a focus on the role of POU/Oct transcription factors in development, stem cell regulation, cancer and immunity. We use the fruitfly Drosophila as a model organism and utilize the genetic tools developed for this organism, in combination with high-throughput expression analyses, high resolution microscopy and live-cell imaging.
Group Erickson
Research groupWe study how biological form emerges during embryonic development. Our goal is to deconstruct the mechanisms used by cells to compute, transmit, and retain spatiotemporal information in the body. We aim to employ gene editing with sequencing- and microscopy-based readouts for quantitative and functional modelling of regulatory networks.
Group Friedländer
Research groupOur group applies computational and omics methods to study mammalian transcriptome regulation, with special emphasis on microRNAs.
Group Gekara
Research groupThe immune system that kills disease-causing microbes and heals tissues, and the DNA repair system that maintains gene expression are essential for life. However, they require careful regulation to prevent the destruction of own tissues. The goal of my research is to better understand these systems and find new strategies in the treatment of diseases.
Group Jastroch
Research groupWe investigate the physiology and molecular mechanisms of energy metabolism from the organism to the molecule. We focus on metabolic aspects during obesity, adipose tissue biology, mitochondrial mechanisms and thermogenesis.
Group Jonas
Research groupOur group studies how bacteria grow and reproduce in fluctuating environments. We use a combination of genetics, cell biology and biochemistry to dissect the molecular mechanisms underlying bacterial growth and cell cycle progression and how these processes are regulated under changing environmental conditions to ensure bacterial survival.
Group Jonsson
Research groupBacterial infection and host defence.
Group Keipert
Research groupThe main focus of our research group is to understand how endocrine crosstalk, involving adipose tissue, controls mammalian energy metabolism. Our goal is to identify target mechanisms for novel therapeutic strategies to fight obesity.
Group Ljungdahl
Research groupAmino acids are essential nutrients that serve as building blocks of proteins and some are efficiently metabolized for energy. Eukaryotic cells respond to extracellular amino acids by enhancing their uptake. We study the molecular mechanisms underlying this response and the role of amino acid metabolism in promoting virulent growth of human fungal pathogens.
Group Mannervik
Research groupWe study transcriptional control of embryo development using cutting-edge genomic technologies and advanced Drosophila genetics.
Group Nedergaard & Cannon
Research groupNonshivering thermogenesis emanates from the activity of the mitochondrial protein UC P1 in brown adipose tissue. We use novel model systems to advance the understanding of mammalian thermogenesis.
Group Ozata
Research groupAs a new research group aiming to construct an international work environment with a mutual respect, our main objective is to enthusiastically investigate how a mammalian male germ cell commits to become a functional sperm. Our studies will therefore advance our understanding of sperm development and may suggest approaches to promote fertility.
