ANNETTE (“ANNE”) BECKER studied Biochemistry at the University of Hannover, Germany. She finished her diploma with a thesis on mRNA decay at the Medical School of Hannover in the Gaestel group (2005). For her PhD thesis she is performing interaction screens between epigenetic factors using e.g. Y2H.

BIANCA BERTULAT graduated with a focus on molecular and developmental cell biology at the Technical University of Darmstadt (2002). For her PhD (2008) she switched topics from mesoderm evolution to neural stem cell specification and moved with the Holstein lab to the University of Heidelberg. There, she finished her practical work, focusing on the identification and characterisation of basic Helix-Loop-Helix transcription factors (supervised by Thomas Holstein). Bianca joined the Cardoso lab 2009, eager to learn all about MeCP2, chromocenters, and nuclear architecture.

M. CRISTINA CARDOSO graduated in biology at the University of Lisbon, Portugal (1986). After finishing her doctoral thesis on phage molecular genetics (1990), she went on to her post-doctoral training in the group of Dr. B. Nadal-Ginard at the Harvard Medical School (Boston, USA) where she worked on cell cycle regulation during terminal differentiation and functional organization of the mammalian nucleus. She became a group leader at the Franz Volhard Clinic (Charité-Berlin, Germany) in 1995 and since 1997 at the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine (Berlin). Since 2008 she has established her group at the Technische Universität Darmstadt.

  CORELLA CASAS DELUCCHI studied biology at the Ludwig-Maximilian-University in Munich. For her diploma thesis she worked on the topological and structural changes that accompany X-chromosome inactivation as well as the Xist-inactivation of transgenic autosomes in embryonic stem cells. In our lab she now combines her skills on FISH with different molecular techniques to assess the duplication of both facultative and constitutive heterochromatin.

  VADIM O. CHAGIN studied biophysics at the State Polytechnical University in St. Petersburg (Russia). His diploma thesis (1999) was on structural conformations of replicated chromatin fibres in mammalian cells. PhD thesis (2004) defended in the Institute of Cytology of the Russian Academy of Sciences was dedicated to high-resolution temporal analysis of the S-phase and structural organization of replication units in mammalian nucleus. Presently Vadim continues his studies of eukaryotic chromatin organization as revealed by DNA replication and/or repair.

Henry Henry D. Herce
Postdoc

Phone: +49-6151-16-5074
Room: B2/03 206
  HENRY D. HERCE is a physicist fascinated by biology. He obtained his Ph.D. studying electrostatics and chemistry using molecular dynamics simulations at North Carolina State University in the US. He is currently concentrated mainly on Cell-Penetrating Peptides (CPP), which are small peptides capable of transporting therapeutic drugs to the interior of cells. He performs these studies both theoretically and experimentally. In 2009 he started to work in our group on several exciting ideas related to CPPs as bio-markers. He also tries to develop methods to analyze and quantify numerous aspects of the cell cycle from microscopic images.

Room: B2/03 206
  LAURENCE K. JOST studied Biology at the Philipps University in Marburg. She finished her Diploma at the MPI for Terrestrial Microbiology working on the Bacterium Myxococcus xanthus. After this exciting time she realized that she was missing something during her research…the nucleus. This Discovery led her to the MDC. For her PhD she is now using FISH and other Methods to investigate the exciting structures and dynamics of the nucleus.

JENNY VÖLGER studied biology at the Technische Universitaet Darmstadt. Her diploma thesis was finished in 2005 in the department of plant physiology, where she is now in the last throes of her PhD thesis on the influence of linker sequences to tag proteins on the minimalistic ion channel Kcv. Meanwhile she started as a labmanager in our group.
