Pernille Rørth - Executive Editor

Executive Editor: Pernille Rørth, IMCB Singapore

Pernille has her PhD from University of Copenhagen, worked at the Carnegie Institution of Washington and then as group leader and senior scientist at European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL). She is presently Deputy Director at the Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology (IMCB) in Singapore. Her group studies the regulation of cell migration and guidance, using Drosophila as model system.


Isabel Arnold - Editor

Editor: Isabel Arnold, EMBO

Isabel received her PhD from the University of Munich for her work on mitochondrial protein sorting. After postdoctoral studies at the ICRF (now Cancer Research UK) working on oncogenes and keratinocyte differentiation and at the University of Cologne studying mitochondrial signaling responses she joined The EMBO Journal team in 2005.


Katherine Brown - Editor

Editor: Katherine Brown, EMBO

Katherine received her PhD from the MRC-LMB in Cambridge, where she studied EGFR-dependent cell rearrangements in the Drosophila eye. She then pursued her interest in tissue morphogenesis as a postdoctoral fellow at EMBL Heidelberg, working on retinal cell migration in zebrafish. She joined The EMBO Journal in 2008.


Karin Dumstrei - Editor

Editor: Karin Dumstrei, EMBO

Karin received her PhD from the University of California Los Angeles where she studied DE-cadherin mediated cell adhesion in Drosophila. She then went to the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry in Göttingen where she worked on primordial germ cell migration in zebrafish. She joined The EMBO Journal in 2005.


Stan Gorski - Editor

Editor: Stan Gorski, EMBO

Stan received his PhD from the University of Leeds in the UK for structural and biophysical studies of protein folding mechanisms. He then moved to the National Cancer Institute at the NIH, USA where his post-doctoral work focused on applying live cell imaging and computational methods to study nuclear processes. He joined The EMBO Journal in 2007.


Thomas Schwarz-Romond - Editor

Editor: Thomas Schwarz-Romond, EMBO

Thomas studied Wnt-signal transduction in the lab of Walter Birchmeier at the Max-Delbrueck Center in Berlin and received his PhD from the FU-Berlin in 2003. He continued to study this exciting topic as postdoctoral fellow with Mariann Bienz at the MRC-LMB in Cambridge and joined The EMBO Journal in June 2006.


Hartmut Vodermaier - Editor

Editor: Hartmut Vodermaier, EMBO

Hartmut received his PhD from the University of Vienna for his work on the ubiquitin ligase APC/C, carried out at the Institute of Molecular Pathology (IMP). After that, he studied kinetochore protein complexes at the European Institute of Oncology (IEO) in Milano. He joined The EMBO Journal in July 2006.


Senior Advisors

David C Baulcombe - Senior Advisor

David C Baulcombe

David Baulcombe is in The Sainsbury Laboratory in Norwich. His lab works on viruses, disease resistance and gene silencing using a combination of genetic, molecular and biological approaches. David works on plants because their products are good to eat and wear and write on - and also because plants are often good models for general biology.


Ari Helenius - Senior Advisor

Ari Helenius

Ari Helenius is professor of biochemistry in the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich. He was trained in Helsinki, Finland, but he has worked since then in EMBL, and for many years in Yale Medical School in the USA. His current research focuses on virus-cell interactions, endocytosis, and protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum.


Tim Hunt - Senior Advisor

Tim Hunt

Tim Hunt is at Cancer Research UK's Clare Hall Laboratories. His laboratory works on cyclin-dependent protein kinases in vertebrates, and likes to use Xenopus cell-free systems derived from eggs and oocytes.


Tony Hunter - Senior Advisor

Tony Hunter

Tony Hunter is in the Molecular and Cell Biology Laboratory at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla, California. His major interest is protein phosphorylation and its role in cell proliferation and the cell cycle. His compilation of all the human protein kinases (the kinome) is a widely used resource in the phosphorylation field.
