Research Groups

Integrative Biology

FG Prof. Dr. Ansgar Kahmen

Physiological Plant Ecology

Plants are fundamental components of the earth system. Their ability to assimilate atmospheric carbon dioxide shapes the way ecosystems function.

FG Prof. Dr. Yvonne Willi

Plant Ecology and Evolution

Our main research topics are adaptation to climate and climate change, plant responses to environmental stress, distribution limits and genetic conflicts.

FG Prof. Dr. Klaus Schläppi

Plant Microbe Interactions

Plants continuously interact with a diverse microbiota that impacts its nutrition and health and determines yields in agriculture.
¨

FG Prof. Dr. Dieter Ebert

Experimental Zoology and Evolution

The main focus of the group are the evolution, genomics and ecology of host-parasite and host-mutualist interactions.

FG Prof. Dr. Walter Salzburger

Animal Diversity and Evolution

Our research deals with the question of how new species - and thus biological diversity - arise.

FG Prof. Dr. Patrick Tschopp

Developmental Biology and Regulatory Evolution

Our research deals with the question of how morphological diversity arises during embryonic development of vertebrates.

FG Prof. Dr. Patricia Holm

Program Man-Society-Environment

In our research we deal with various aspects of the sustainable use and protection of resources.

FG Prof. Dr. Bruno Baur

Conservation Biology

Conservation biology is a multidisciplinary field of science dealing with the analysis of various levels of biodiversity and assessing the causes for its decline.

FG vakant

Integrative Prehistory and Archeological Science (IPAS)

IPAS is a unique combination of humanities and natural science research areas and archaeology courses all under one roof.

Earth Sciences

FG Prof. Dr. Moritz Lehmann

Aquatic and Isotopic Biogeochemistry

Research activities of our group deal with biogeochemical processes in aquatic systems and sedimentary environments.

FG Prof. Dr. Oliver Heiri

Geoecology

Research of the Geoecology group focusses on past, present and potential future effects of environmental drivers on species, assemblages and ecosystems.

FG Prof. Dr. Christine Alewell

Environmental Geoscience

We are interested in terrestrial biogeochemical cycling with an emphasis on soil processes. We investigate soil-atmosphere interactions.

FG Prof. Dr. Markus Kalberer

Atmospheric Sciences

Our group investigates the role of aerosols in the atmosphere and performs studies elucidating different meteorological and climatological processes.

FG Prof. Dr. Nikolaus Kuhn

Physical Geography and Environmental Change

Physiogeography records, organizes and explains the natural environment of humans.

Prof. Dr. Ruth Delzeit

Landuse Change / Human Geography

As of 1st February 21, Prof. Dr. Ruth Delzeit will take up her work as professor in global and regional landuse change.

FG Prof. Dr. Dominik Fleitmann

Quaternary Geology

The Quaternary period comprises the last 2.66 million years and is characterized by cyclic changes in global ice volume. These glacial-interglacial cycles had a profound impact on climate and ecosystems.

FG PD Dr. Jannis Epting & Dr. Horst Dresmann

Applied and Environmental Geology

Current research focuses also on urban geology and hydrogeology as well as the management of subsurface resources (water & energy).
