- Nobel laureate Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard is Director at the Max-Planck-Institut für Entwicklungsbiologie (developmental biology), her work with Drosophila melanogaster and zebrafish Danio rerio greatly improved our present-day understanding of embryonal developement.
We come from the beautiful city of Tübingen, located in Southern Germany on the Neckar river. Tübingen is home to approx. 25,000 students, among the 85,000 citizens.
