Gires, Olivier The Gires Lab focuses on deciphering molecular aspects of early aspects of local invasion, which contribute to the formation of isolated buds of few tumor cells detached from the main tumor and, thereby, promote recurrences despite multi-modal therapy. The group uses a combination of 3D models of invasion of HNSCC, next-generation sequencing techniques (bulk, single-cell, spatial transcriptomics), cell-tracing systems, and ex vivo tissue culture slices for this purpose. available in 2026
Vollmar, Angelika The biochemical pathway of chlorophyll degradation has only recently been characterized. The metabolites that are yielded from the breakdown path – the phyllobilins – were shown to have antioxidant properties. not available
