Paul Grünert is a biology student with a strong interest in molecular biology and human genetics. He supports the team not only with his fresh perspective on science, but also with his calm and patient character, making him an important member of the team.
Paul’s ability to visualize complex biomedical research topics identifies him as a key person for the development of concepts for our public relations activities. In addition, he assists our project managers during bottlenecks at project deadlines or meetings. He also takes outstanding photographs. In addition, he organizes a lecture series of general interest, “Wissenschaft im Laden”, where scientists present their research to a general audience.
Although Paul's training as a biologist only started in 2017, he has held a strong interest in biology and other science topics for more than a decade. Maybe it has something to do with his parents. This strong interest in biology led him to write an essay on the genetic contribution of Neanderthals to modern humans, analyzing the current primary literature on molecular paleogenetics.
