BIO
Prof. Dr. Robert Endres leads the Complex Adaptive and Living Matter (CALM) group with its strength in the quantitative understanding of sensing and signalling, and co-directs the Physics of Life Network of Excellence (PoLNE) at Imperial College. He also designed and introduced the master's programme in systems and synthetic biology, and is highly involved in training undergraduate students in systems biology.
Before starting at Imperial College in 2007 as Senior Lecturer, Robert was a postdoc with Prof. Ned Wingreen in the Molecular Biology Department at Princeton University, where his main research accomplishments were the understanding of the remarkable signalling properties of bacterial chemotaxis and the atomistic prediction of protein-DNA binding sites. In 2002 he obtained a PhD in physics from the University of California at Davis. His work, conducted in the group of Prof. Daniel Cox, dealt with charge transfer in biomolecules, in particular in DNA. In 1999 he obtained a Masters physics from the University of Goettingen in Germany, where he worked in the group of Prof. Kurt Schoenhammer on highly correlated electronic systems. In 1996/1997 he also spent an academic year at the University of California at Santa Cruz.
