Research on developmental timing, cell fates and RNA

Carolin is trained as a biochemist at the University of Tübingen. In our lab she will work together with Ben!

UPDATE: Our preprint has been successfully published as a peer-reviewed paper in eLife along with a preview article
We wish you a great start in your new positions!



SNSF Eccellenza Professorial Fellowships are aimed at outstanding researchers in all disciplines who aspire to a permanent professorship. With this, Ben aims to kickstart his own lab in Bern, studying the principles of environmental control of growth and aging

In Caenorhabditis elegans, the heterochronic pathway controls the timing of somatic cell development. This may be conserved across species, as several heterochronic genes have counterparts in mammals. The let-7 miRNA and its regulator LIN28 seem to regulate the start of puberty in mice and humans. – available as a preprint on bioRxiv
