Research Themes

The interdiscipinary Center 'Life in Space and Time' intends to unite the potentials of statistical physics and bioorganic synthesis with novel approaches to molecular and cellular spatial organization as well as expertise on organismic and human communication and development, and population control. 

For this purpose, we are uniting researchers from the LWF and the MNF, who share a common vision to understand, quantify, and model the dynamic spatial and temporal organizational principles of life.

To investigate spatial and temporal processes of living systems at the gene expression, sub-cellular, cellular, organismic, population and environmental level we will use a combination of experimental, psychological, and theoretical approaches. 

Spatio-temporal dynamics at gene expression level

Spatio-temporal dynamics at subcellular and cellular level

Spatio-temporal dynamics at organismic level

Spatio-temporal dynamics at population level

Spatio-temporal dynamics at environmental level
