Mission statement
Nature provides a fascinating pool of substances for drug development. The Vollmar Lab aims at deciphering the therapeutical potential of natural compounds focussing on cancer.
In particular, we focus on:
- tumor metabolism (Team Karin Bartel)
- tumor angiogenesis (Team Stefan Zahler)
- cytoskeleton and biomechanics (Team Stefan Zahler)
- phyllobilins (Team Simone Moser)
- Characterization and target identification of natural products (Team Simone Moser)
- the endolysosomal system (ES) (Team Karin Bartel)
