Max F. Perutz Laboratories

The University of Vienna and the Medical University of Vienna are merging their expertise in Molecular Biology and have established the Max F. Perutz Laboratories in spring 2005. The Perutz Lab promotes research and training in more than 50 research groups in both universities and offer state-of-the-art scientific infrastructure.
 
The Perutz Lab represents strong research groups with a broad thematic profile. New research groups will be established, existing synergies will be improved and new cooperations will be promoted activly.
 
“The main aim for the Perutz Lab is to become a Center of Excellence in the Life Sciences during the next decades. In particular, it should meet the demands of unforeseen scientific developments and, indeed, be itself the source of unforeseen developments” (Schatz/Nasmyth)
