  • Biography

    Christoph Grundner received his PhD from the University of Heidelberg, Germany, for work on HIV vaccine design at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School, in Boston. He continued working on HIV at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, before joining Tom Alber’s group at the University of California, Berkeley for a postdoc. 

    There, Grundner discovered his interest in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), using structural biology and chemical tools to understand Mtb virulence mechanisms, work for which he received fellowships from the American Lung Association and the New York Community Trust, Heiser Fund. His interest in Mtb pathogenesis led him to the center, where he joined as an assistant professor in 2009. Grundner is also an affiliate assistant professor in the Department of Global Health and a member of the Molecular and Cell Biology Program at the University of Washington.
