We are Helmholtz Munich. In a rapidly changing world, we discover breakthrough solutions for better health.

Our research is focused within the areas of metabolic health/diabetes, environmental health, molecular targets and therapies, cell programming and repair, bioengineering, and computational health. We particularly excel in the fields of basic research, bioengineering, artificial intelligence, and technological development.

Through this research, we build the foundations for medical innovation. Together with our partners, we seek to accelerate the transfer of our research, so that laboratory ideas can reach society and improve people’s quality of life at the fastest rate possible.

This is what drives us. Why not join us and make a difference?

We at the Institute of Structural Biology at Helmholtz Munich study the structure and function of the PURA protein. Our overall goal is to understand PURA’s cellular functions and the molecular consequences of a PURA deficiency in PURA syndrome patients. Therefore, we use genetically modified immortalized cell lines and patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). High-throughput techniques in these cells already gave us first ideas about PURA’s interactome and in which pathways PURA may play a role. These data need further validation to identify specific molecular mechanisms that cause the severe disorder. Ultimately, we want to provide information that can lead to the development of treatment strategies for PURA syndrome patients.

Interested? Join us on this crucial and challenging task for your master thesis or contact us if you want to be part of this as an intern.
