The Emil Fischer Center

The Emil Fischer Center of the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg is made up of working groups from pharmaceutical sciences, food chemistry and molecular medicine.

The intention of the Emil Fischer Center is to focus, to crosslink and to force the scientific work on bioactive molecules, target proteins and bioanalytics. The main topics are the identification and modeling of target proteins, ligand-protein interactions and the role of target proteins in signaling.

Furthermore, the Emil Fischer Center coordinates the interdisciplinary education of students and the training of postgraduates within the fields of pharmacy, food chemistry and molecular medicine.
