Our Lab

The laboratory of Chemical Biology is located in the building Helix on the TU Eindhoven campus (see Figure 1 for a plan). This laboratory is part of the department of Biomedical Engineering. The laboratory of Chemical Biology consists of two laboratories. The first one is a ML-I laboratory with biosafety level 1 (WHO BSL 1). Most work at the ML-I lab involves recombinant expression of proteins in E. coli or yeast expression systems, and the application of bacteriophages for phage display. The second one is a ML-II laboratory (cell lab) with biosafety level 2 (WHO BSL 2). Work in the ML-II lab typically involves the use of immortalized cell lines, but it can also involve tissues or primary cells from animals or humans.
