Das Siegel der LMU symbolisiert auf moderne Art und Weise die traditionelle Vergangenheit der Universität und wird nach Möglichkeit bei allen Gestaltungen als zusätzliches grafisches Schmuckelement eingesetzt.

Prof. Dr. Nicolai Siegel. Molecular Parasitology Divisions of Physiological Chemistry and Experimental Parasitology +49 89 2180 77098 [email protected]. Research Topics. Chromatin organization; Genome architecture; Antigenic variation; Trypanosoma brucei

Group Leader Molecular Parasitology.

The Siegel group aims to elucidate the mechanisms that control cell-to-cell heterogeneity in a population across different scales, i.e. how differences in genome sequence, chromatin organization and 3D genome architecture influence the expression of different surface antigens.

Using the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei, the causative agent of African sleeping sickness, our research aims to elucidate some of the very fundamental and evolutionarily conserved mechanisms of chromatin formation.
