Principal Investigator
Prof. Barbara A. Niemeyer, PhD.
Professor of Molecular Biophysics
Center for Integrative Physiology & Molecular Medicine (CIPMM) Bd. 48
Universitätsklinikum des Saarlandes DE-66421, Homburg (Saar)
About
Barbara obtained her undergraduate degree (Diplom) in Biology from RWTH Aachen before joining the laboratory of Charles S. Zuker (HHMI) as a PhD student at the Neuroscience Graduate School, UC San Diego (USA). In her PhD work, Barbara identified the functional roles of TRPL, CDP-DAG and INAD in Drosophila photoreceptor function.
As postdoctoral trainee with Thomas L. Schwarz at Stanford University, Barbara worked on the specificity of SNARE protein function before joining the Pharmacology Department at Saarland University as a group leader with a focus on the mammalian TRP channels TRPV6 and TRPM8.
In 2008 Barbara joined the Department of Biophysics as research professor, before becoming Full Professor of Molecular Biophysics at Saarland University in 2014.
