New Perutz Principal Investigator Projects funded by FWF

Verena Jantsch-Plunger and Javier Martinez, group leaders at the Perutz, have received new funding from the Austrian Science Fund (FWF). In their respective Principal Investigator Projects, the Jantsch lab aims to unravel the role of Dbf4-dependent kinase (DDK) in meiosis while the Martinez lab examines Ashwin – one of five subunits of the tRNA ligase complex. Each project has been funded with approximately €500,000.
