Biosketch Helle Ulrich
Helle Ulrich studied Biology at the University of Göttingen. She carried out her dissertation in Chemistry with Peter G. Schultz at the University of California, Berkely, USA, and received her doctoral degree in 1996 for her work on recombinant catalytic antibodies. Her postdoctoral work with Stefan Jentsch at the University of Heidelberg and the Max Planck Institute for Biochemistry in Martinsried were focussed on the functions of the ubiquitin system in budding yeast. In 2000 she established an independent research group at the Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology in Marburg, studying the contributions of the posttranslational modifiers, ubiquitin and SUMO, to the maintenance of genome stability. In 2004 her lab moved to the Clare Hall Laboratories of the Cancer Research UK London Research Institute. In 2008 Helle Ulrich was elected as an EMBO member.
