Welcome and thank you for visiting the website of the biophysics department at the GSI in Darmstadt. The biophysics department is an interdisciplinary collaboration of biologists, physicists, chemists, biochemists and technicians.

The multidisciplinary research in our group covers many different topics which can be roughly summarized in the categories radiobiology, physics, space research and therapy.

The biophysics research at GSI is a part of a large international network of more than 40 groups from universities and other research institutes.
