I'm Dr. Markus Winter, and I come from Gössenheim, a tiny village located in the shadow of the castle ruin Homburg about 36 km from Würzburg.
After finishing my undergraduate studies in Biology in Würzbug I did my diploma and PhD at the University of Edinburgh in Edinburgh (Scotland).
I then took a Post-Doc position in New Zealand at the School of Medicine in Auckland; shortly afterwards our group moved to the Liggins Institute.
As my parents were getting on a bit I wanted to be closer at hand and returned to Edinburgh, working at the Centre for Integrative Physiology, before returning to Germany.
I'm currently looking for a job as Molecular Biologist in Heidelberg, and in the meanwhile write scientific programs and do the support for the relief project “India’s Street Kids” (even though the unctuous tone of the letters and emails that I need to translate is getting on my nerves).
