Department of Biochemistry
Department head: Harald Stenmark, Professor
Department secretary: May Elisabeth Johannessen
The department is divided into three research groups, sharing equipment and labspace.
All three groups are concerned with various aspects of intracellular trafficking.
- Protein internalisation, headed by Antoni Wiedlocha
- Intracellular transport, headed by professor Kirsten Sandvig
- Intracellular communication, headed by professor Harald Stenmark
