Photomicrograph of osteoblasts grown on silicon. Green fluorescence indicates points of cell contact wth the material and red staining highlights the actin cytoskeleton.

Central aim of the cell biology group is to collect the cell biology know-how within Nano2Life. The desired outcome will be a state-of-the-art report which explains the research areas, aims and technical problems of the cell biology scientists of this group. This report should help to establish contacts between the SRP-T groups and people from the cell biology group.

After finishing the cell biology survey, external scientists and industries with research areas fitting to the focus of this group will be contacted to strengthen the group. The next steps will be discussions with the SRP-T groups about intersection projects.
