The Institute: CeMM is a flagship institute for biomedical research in the heart of Europe, Vienna. CeMM is committed to highest scientific standards as exemplified by recent publications in top journals including Nature, Cell, Science and Nature sister journals as well as by its top international scientific advisory board. The environment is very collaborative, dynamic and international. One of CeMM`s advantages is to be in close proximity to the Vienna Medical University Campus and the General Hospital (AKH). This allows the fruitful interaction of basic scientists with clinicians, and the use of models and cutting-edge technology to disease-relevant biological questions. According to a study by The Scientist, CeMM is ranked as the best European place to work in Academia 2012, internationally CeMM appears at the fourth place. The Superti-Furga lab is highly successful and particularly fun and gratifying to work in.

Giulio Superti-Furga Laboratory: Giulio Superti-Furga, Ph.D., is the Scientific Director of CeMM, the Research Center of Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences and a Professor for Medical Systems Biology at the Medical University of Vienna. He performed his undergraduate and graduate studies in molecular biology at the University of Zurich, Switzerland, at Genentech Inc., South San Francisco, USA, and at the Institute for Molecular Pathology in Vienna (I.M.P.), Austria. He has been a post-doctoral fellow and team leader at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) until 2004. For several years he has served as Professor of Biotechnology at the University of Bologna. In 2000, he co-founded the biotech company Cellzome Inc., where he has been Scientific Director and responsible for the Heidelberg research site. Since 2005 he is Scientific Director of CeMM. The Superti-Furga laboratory combines molecular biology and proteomics with chemistry and bioinform!
 atics in an interdisciplinary approach to generate a comprehensive “systems-level” understanding of pathological process. In close collaboration with laboratories at the General Hospital and the Medical University, the Superti-Furga laboratory investigates the molecular mechanism behind challenging unexplained observations on drugs and on pathological events. http://www.cemm.oeaw.ac.at/research/groups/giulio-superti-furga-group/
