The BMRZ is a research infrastructure facility for high-end nuclear and electron magnetic resonance spectroscopy . Our research is dedicated to the elucidation of structure and functional mechanism of biomolecules ranging from RNA and RNA-protein complexes via large soluble protein complexes to membrane proteins

The Structural Genomics Consortium at the Goethe University Frankfurt (SGC Frankfurt) is focused on the development of selective inhibitors (chemical probes), which help us to better understand the biological role of key signaling molecules and may serve as a starting point to target these proteins in different diseases. The SGC Frankfurt is committed to sharing its research in the spirit of Open Science.

The Diagnostic Center of Acute Leukemia (DCAL) investigates chromosomal translocations of the human MLL gene, associated with high-risk acute leukemia (AML and ALL) of pediatric and adult leukemia patients. By applying a novel "long distance inverse PCR method" (LDI-PCR), we are able to identify MLL gene rearrangements at the genomic DNA level of pre-screened patients (Meyer et al., PNAS 2005).

The formation of the Center for Membrane Proteomics in 2002 was simultaneously the beginning of a professional organization of elementary techniques in advanced light microscopy with the aim to provide this in a central facility available for all scientists of the Goethe University. Conducted by former vice president of the Goethe University and director of the life imaging lab Jürgen Bereiter-Hahn, who is also the initiator of the new campus Riedberg, gathering all natural sciences at one place, the CMP Light Microscopy Center was established. Now a central administration managed the operation of the common facility. User now got trained on the instruments and into data analyses, before they started to use them, which was good the efficiency of the time spent on them but also for the lifetime and availability of the instruments. The administration took care for maintenance and repair as well as for the costs and a fair regulation of the access. The first confocal microscopes were allocated by Anna Starzinski-Powitz and Robert Tampé. Rooms were provided by the center for temporary projects using TIRF, FLIM and MELC technology. An infrastructure with labs, cryotom, refrigerators completed the facility.

Das Lehrerfortbildungszentrum lfbz Chemie der Goethe-Universität ist ein Teil des Instituts für Didaktik der Chemie und ergänzt dessen Auftrag in der Lehrerbildung durch sein  Fortbildungskonzept. Dieses richtet sich an Chemielehrerinnen und Chemielehrer der Sekundartstufen I und II, Grundschule und Förderschule.

Ermöglicht wird die Arbeit des Fortbildungszentrums durch eine Zusammenarbeit von Goethe-Universtität, der Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (GDCh) und dem Land Hessen. Eine Übersicht über alle derzeit von der GDCh geförderten Lehrerfortbildungszentren in Deutschland finden Sie unter www.gdch.chemielehrerfortbildung.de.
