Research Trining Group (RTG) 2670 "Beyond Amphiphilicity" has started in May 2021. See our BEAM Homepage!

Biological and synthetic soft matter has a remarkable ability to self-assemble into larger, complex and even functional structures solely using non-covalent interactions (e.g. electrostatic and hydrophobic forces). Dariush Hinderberger's research group uses electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy as its main research tool to study soft matter from the underlying fundamental interactions to more applied questions. The research has gained a special focus on complex biomedical questions (e.g. transport proteins or intrinsically disordered proteins (IDP)) and applications (e.g. smart systems for drug delivery).

EPR spectroscopy is a magnetic resonance method that is sensitive to molecular motions from the pico- to microsecond regime and to distances between 0.1 and ~8 nanometers. EPR is complemented by other methods of physical investigation like NMR and IR spectroscopy, electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and dynamic light scattering (DLS), and by synthetic chemistry, which allows a unique approach to study these classes of complex materials.

We have a variety of different research projects for Master's and Bachelor's students, and potentially for PhD-students and postdocs! If you are interested in our research or in joining the group you may always contact us.
