News & Events

Kian started his PhD in early January 2025, supervised by Julian Trouillon and Uwe Sauer. He will be working on the effects of post-translational modifications on transcription factor activity. Welcome back Kian, and all the best!

Congratulations Ruedi!

Pedro received this award for his leading and long-standing involvement in promoting the principles of sharing and integrating resources for the development of excellent research in the Proteomics field.

Julian obtained a competitive Ambizione grant from the Swiss National Science Foundation that will enable him to start his own lab on transcriptional regulation at IMSB for the next 4 years. Congrats Julian!  

EMBO is an organization of leading researchers that promotes excellence in the life sciences in Europe and beyond. It announced the election of 120 researchers, one of which is Pedro. Through this lifelong honour, EMBO Members and Associated Members are recognized for their outstanding achievements in the life sciences.

In this project, we aim at inferring input signals affecting transcription factors activity using computational analysis of regulatory and metabolic networks.

Ruedi Aebersold, the founder of IMSB, was awarded the prestigious Dr. H.P. Heineken Prize for Biochemistry and Biophysics. He receives it together with Matthias Mann (MPI Munich) "... because they pioneered the field of proteomics and revolutionized the way in which scientists study proteins today".  

The prize by the German Society of Mass Spectrometry (DGMS) honors outstanding method developments in and applications of mass spectrometry in the life sciences. 

The group was one of 19 labs across ETH Zurich to be certified in the LEAF pilot project.

Stephan's thesis pivots on the integrated analysis of endothelial cells from different vascular beds. 

The prize is awarded by the Swiss Academies of Arts and Sciences in recognition of  innovative and impactful practices in the field of Open Research Data (ORD).

Jonas started his PhD in the group in December, working on protein phosphorylation and post-translational modifications in E. coli. Welcome back Jonas, and viel Erfolg!

We congratulate Tomek for successfully defending his thesis on "Simulation-based metabolic flux inference" which, by his own words, all boils down to clouds vs. points. Well done!

The winner is selected by the ETH Student association to honor a individual that stands out for promoting excellence in teaching. Congratulations!

Congratulations! PS: No, Nicola wasn't involved in the selection :-)

We are glad to welcome new students with the beginning of the Academic Year. Good luck! 

The SCS Simon-Widmer Award honors distinguished scientists for their contribution to fundamental and applied analytical science and the education of analytical scientists.

Vilhelmiina starts in January to work on microbial interactions in seawater communities. Good luck Vilhelmiina!
