At the Berlin Institute of Medical Systems Biology (BIMSB), an institute of the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine (MDC), around 250 top researchers investigate how genes control the life of cells and thus influence health and disease.

The BIMSB is located in a new, architecturally impressive research building in Berlin-Mitte and at its grand opening on February 26, 2019, it was not only the architecture that German Chancellor Angela Merkel was attending for, but rather primarily to honour BIMSB’s outstanding research. The chancellor was able to see this for herself during her visit, which also included a tour of the laboratory.

Together with the team at the MDC, con gressa ensured that the opening was an exciting experience for everyone involved.
