Team:Heidelberg/Team

Dating back to 1386 the Ruperto-Carola University of Heidelberg [1] is not only Germany's oldest University [2, 3], but - associated with numerous Nobel Laureates [4] - it is also one of Europe's prestigious places for natural, life and medical sciences [5]. For students, however, Heidelberg is not only the starting ground for a scientific career, it also hosts a fountain for inter-cultural relations and friendships [6].

Left you can get an impression of where we work. You could find us in the front building at the far left end of the picture... The building hosts research groups of the BIOQUANT (Quantitative Analysis of Molecular and Cellular Biological Systems) network and is situated on the campus of the university of Heidelberg.

The German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) [1] has just recently been rated by an international panel as one of the leading cancer research institutes. This strong reputation was recently confirmed by the award of the Medicine Nobel Prize to Professor zur Hausen, who has discovered the Papilloma virus as agent for cervical cancer.
