Dr. Jonathan Bohlen

Emmy Noether Group Leader

I am a molecular biologist and Emmy Noether-funded, independent research group leader at the Gene Center at LMU Munich, working at the interfaces of mRNA translation, human genetics and molecular immunology. During my PhD, I studied the molecular mechanisms of gene expression control at the translational level. As postdoctoral fellow, I studied the mechanism of genetic predisposition to immunological disease in humans. My goal is to unravel fundamental molecular biology through the discovery and study of human genetic defects, in particular those affecting the mRNA translation machinery.
