Focus areas
The Institute of Physiological Chemistrys scientific work groups focus on mechanisms of cell and tissue damage.
The effects of reactive species of oxygen and nitrogen, of oxygen deprivation, of cold storage, and of mechanical trauma on such damage are studied using models ranging in complexity from chemical systems to cultured cells, perfused organs, patient samples and animal models.
In addition to basic research, the aim is to develop novel therapeutic approaches.
Fields of Research
