Over the last 30 years, the Vienna BioCenter has established itself as a top biology research center in Europe, comprising four research institutes (GMI, IMBA, IMP, Max Perutz Labs) that together host 91 groups conducting innovative research in all areas of the life sciences. The wide range of expertise, from biophysics and structural biology to cell biology and evolution, combined with a plethora of model systems, ensures diversity and interdisciplinarity.
R&D:Purely curiosity-driven research is highly valued and encouraged, and there is also a focus on basic biomedical research and mechanisms of disease, laying the groundwork for future solutions to global health problems. Similarly, basic research in plants is important for agriculture and may ultimately provide solutions for sustainable food and energy production. Several key discoveries that have brought the Vienna BioCenter international recognition illustrate the high caliber of research.
