Christian Rosenmund

Cellular and molecular neuroscience session | The title of the talk is not defined yet.

Christian Rosenmund is Professor of Neurobiology at Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin (Institute of Neurophysiology). He is also a board member of the NeuroCure Cluster of Excellence.

Rosenmund’s research focuses on synaptic transmission, in particular on synaptic vesicle release, making use of a wide range of techniques, which include electrophysiology, calcium imaging and electron microscopy, to characterise the function of presynaptic proteins on neurotransmission. His research has played an important role, for example, in the understanding of SNARE-mediated synaptic vesicle release.

His long and prolific career has been widely recognised for its impact, resulting in several recognitions, such as the election as a member of the National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina.
