How does the genome respond to genome duplication? Srikant et al. from the Bomblies lab (IMPB/D-BIOL) at ETH Zurich found epigenomic and transcriptomic changes in neo- polyploid Arabidopsis arenosa often revert in evolved polyploids. More: biol.ethz.ch/en/news-and-ev…

Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a new method to measure changes in #Protein social networks within cells, paving the way for new drug treatments for diseases like cancer and #Alzheimer’s. brnw.ch/21wNPnN


Implanting bacteria into fungi to unlock new biochemical capabilities! Read the findings on inducing artificial #endosymbiosis followed by adaptive #evolution in 🍄 by the #VorholtLab @ETH Zurich. @Nature: nature.com/articles/s4158… ETH News: ethz.ch/en/news-and-ev…


The gamma-tubulin ring complex controls microtubule nucleation in cells. The @MikeVVieczorek lab demonstrates that CDK5RAP2 regulates the structure of the gamma-tubulin ring complex to dramatically promote its microtubule-nucleating activity. More: biol.ethz.ch/en/news-and-ev…

This is a public lecture, everyone is invited to join. Just register!

Lunch was once again so-so? Professor Thomas Michaels can tell you why. Together with well-known chefs and food producers, he will present the fascinating science behind cooking. "Cook the Science" On 22 October, 12 November and 3 December from 6 pm. ethz.ch/en/news-and-ev…



Biology student Fatima Ali Ebrahim had a rocky start of her studies. In this video she shares what helped her turn things around and why she now loves studying biology at ETH. youtu.be/oSv3yRM2R88


Whatever it takes to make the right decision or to get an impression: D-BIOL answered hundreds of questions during the study information days at our stand, in lab tours, an example lecture, a curriculum presentation and a comparison event. See you again in a year!
