GRK 120:  Signalling Cascades in Living Systems

Subject Area Basic Research in Biology and Medicine
Term from 1998 to 2003
Project identifier Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 269933
 
Studying signalling cascades in organisms requires a complex analysis of information- and material flow. The traditional division of scientific disciplines and their competence does not meet this requirement. Although the flow of material can be described precisely by experimental science, the informational aspect is often neglected due to its complexity and missing knowledge of details. It is therefore the aim of this research training group to train students to evaluate experimental data in the context of modelling approaches. In order to do so, signalling cascades are investigated in an integrative way on different levels of biological organisation. The co-operation between experimental and theoretical neurobiologists should subserve as a model for this integration of experimental and theoreticalapproaches.
