HFSP Funding for international Research Project at the BIOTEC: Switching Molecular Engines in Cells with Light
Professor Stephan Grill of the BIOTEC directs the research cooperation funded with more than one million US dollars by the HFSP.
The organization „Human Frontier Science Program Organization“ (HFSP) funds an international research cooperation under the direction of Professor Stephan Grill of the Biotechnology Center of the TU Dresden (BIOTEC). Together with Professor Zev Bryant of the Stanford University Schools of Medicine and Engineering (USA), and Professor Alpha Yap of the University of Queensland (Australia), a method is established to switch molecular engines in cells and tissue with light. This cooperation is funded over three years with more than one million US dollars.
