Dr. Redmond Smyth

Über

Nach dem naturwissenschaftlichen Studium an der Universität Cambridge (Großbritannien) wechselte Redmond Smyth für seine Doktorarbeit an das Burnet Institute, Melbourne (Australien), um die Mechanismen der genetischen Vielfalt von HIV-1 in seinen natürlichen Zielzellen zu untersuchen. In seiner Doktorarbeit wies er auf die Bedeutung der RNA-Struktur bei der Regulierung viraler Infektionsprozesse hin. Als Postdoc am Institut Biologie Moléculaire et Cellulaire (IBMC) des Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS) und der Universität Straßburg (Frankreich) ließ er sich zum RNA-Biochemiker ausbilden. Dabei untersuchte er die Mechanismen, die zum Einbau der genomischen HIV-1-RNA in Viruspartikel führen. Als Chargé de recherche (CR2) forschte er von 2015 an weiter am IBMC. 2018 gründete er seine eigenständige Helmholtz-Nachwuchsgruppe am HIRI.
