Prof Dr Theresia Stradal
Head of Department

Theresia Stradal studied Biology at the Paris Lodron University of Salzburg in Austria, where she also received her PhD from the Institute for Molecular Biology in 2000. She subsequently worked in the Cell Biology department at the Gesellschaft für Biotechnologische Forschung in Braunschweig (today’s Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research, HZI) as a postdoc for four years.

In 2005 she took over the group leader position until she was offered a W2 professorship by the Institute for Molecular Cell Biology at the University of Münster in 2009. In 2014, she returned to Braunschweig to accept a W3 professorship at the Institute for Zoology of the Technische Universität Braunschweig.

At the same time, Theresia Stradal became head of the department Cell Biology at the HZI. Her focus here is on host-pathogen-interactions as well as the defense mechanisms of the host and virulence mechanisms of the pathogens.
