Research Groups

Discover the research groups in the Section for Functional Genomics at UCPH exploring bacterial cell cycle, genome stability, DNA repair, immunity and reprogramming.

Anders Løbner-Olesen Lab

The main research topic of the ‘Bacterial cell cycle group’ is the cell cycle control of DNA replication in bacteria, using the model bacterium Escherichia coli.

Chromosomal Fragile Sites and Extremely Large Genes – Oestergaard group

The Oestergaard Group studies why very large genes form fragile sites and cause chromosome instability, using cell models and molecular tools to understand genome integrity.

Error-free DNA repair

The research of my laboratory is focused on the spatio-temporal organization and regulation of homologous recombination (HR) and its role in maintaining genome integrity.

Innate immunity and cellular reprogramming

Innate immunity and cellular reprogramming at the Rodriguez group.
