Press Release No. 55 December 09, 2020 Berlin Mina Gouti awarded ERC Consolidator Grant The European Research Council (ERC) awarded Dr. Mina Gouti a €2.8 million Consolidator Grant to further develop miniature neuromuscular organoids for studying neuromuscular development and diseases. It was the second honor in as many weeks; she was also named an EMBO Young Investigator for her work. Press Release No. 53 November 30, 2020 Berlin New PhD programs kick off at the MDC PhD candidates now have the opportunity to apply for two new training programs. The EU is supporting the program for talented early-stage researchers at the MDC and other European research institutions to the tune of €4 million per network. Press Release No. 51 November 05, 2020 Berlin The ebb and flow of brain ventricles Enlarged ventricles in the brains of people with multiple sclerosis were previously considered a sign of tissue loss. But a team at the MDC and ECRC demonstrated that this expansion often recedes. A study published in JCI Insight now shows that the process observed in mice is transferable to humans. Press Release No. 49 October 30, 2020 Berlin Methodological tour-de-force: Biochemist Annita Louloupi receives Marthe Vogt Award The Marthe Vogt Prize of the Forschungsverbund Berlin e.V. (FVB) this year goes to Dr. Annita Louloupi for her outstanding contributions to the fundamental understanding of RNA biology. Annita Louloupi has been doing research at the MDC since January 2019. The prize honors young female scientists. Press Release No. 47 October 16, 2020 Berlin MDC research funded by NIH award A large grant under the NIH’s 4D Nucleome Program supports MDC scientist Ana Pombo’s work as a member of a multi-team consortium led by UC San Diego in the U.S. The team will investigate how DNA organizes inside cell nuclei and functions in space and time. Press Release No. 44 October 07, 2020 Berlin MDC congratulates Nobel prize winners Thomas Sommer, interim Scientific Director of the MDC congratulates Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer A. Doudna on winning the Nobel Prize for Chemistry. Press Release No. 38 September 03, 2020 Berlin ERC funding for pioneering research Two MDC scientists – Kathrin de Rosa and Ilaria Piazza – have earned ERC Starting Grants to fuel their pioneering research. They are seeking answers to questions that may one day change the way we approach vaccines and think about how small molecules influence gene expression and disease. Press Release No. 35 August 21, 2020 Berlin Organoids and sequencing team up for ALS research MDC researchers received a $150,000 pilot project grant from the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative’s Neurodegeneration Challenge Network to investigate a defining feature of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Press Release No. 34 August 14, 2020 Berlin €66 million for the Berlin spin-off T-knife The Berlin biotech start-up T-knife, a spin-off from the MDC together with Charité, has secured investments totaling €66 million. Four venture capital funds committed to the financing in early August. T-knife develops new cancer treatments using modified immune system T cells.
