The Heisenberg lab aims to study various forms of bio-mechanical mechanisms underlying the morphogenetic modules and principles in the development of multicellular structures, from a single cell to a multicellular embryo, investigating and modelling zebrafish, ascidian and drosophila embryos. Cell adhesion, polarisation, movement and division stand in the center of our interest. As Read More ...
All members of the Heisenberg lab work hard to generate publishable data and images, along with meaningful results. Research Articles Book Chapters and Reviews
