At IMB, we explore the molecular biology of the nucleus with an overarching focus on gene regulation, epigenetics & genome stability
IMB is a modern research centre, which is funded by the Boehringer Ingelheim Foundation and the State of Rhineland Palatinate. Our scientists conduct basic research in epigenetics, genome stability, ageing and related areas.
