Die Molekulare Biotechnologie ist ein sehr junger Zweig der Naturwissenschaften und verknüpft die Fachgebiete Molekulare Genetik, Bioinformatik, Mikrobiologie, Zellbiologie und Biochemie mit der Bioverfahrenstechnik. Studierende des Studienganges Molekulare Biotechnologie haben die Möglichkeit, interdisziplinär den Einsatz und die gezielte Nutzung biologischer Prozesse von Organismen und Zellen zu erlernen und für neue Fragestellungen, wie beispielsweise die Entwicklung von neuen pharmazeutischen Wirkstoffen oder biologischen Werkstoffen, anzuwenden. In dem vorliegenden Lehrbuch vermittelt das aus erfahrenen Spezialisten bestehende Autorenteam aktuelles Grundlagenwissen aus Proteomik, funktioneller Genomik und moderner Wirkstoff-Forschung. Das besondere Interesse gilt dabei wichtigsten Methoden und neuesten Technologien aus Forschung und biotechnischer Produktion. Das Lehrbuch wendet sich sowohl an Studierende im Grund- und Aufbaustudium des Studienganges Molekulare Biotechnologie als auch an Studierende in etablierten Studiengängen der Pharmazie, Biologie, Biochemie und Chemie. Es ist darüber hinaus ein wichtiges Nachschlagewerk für Diplomanden, Doktoranden und technisches Personal in biotechnologischen Labors. Das erfahrene Autorenteam dieses Lehrbuches bietet ein einzigartiges Themenspektrum von molekularbiologischen und biotechnischen Methoden über Strategien der Wirkstoffentwicklung bis hin zu Informationen über Patentrecht, Firmengründung und die moderne Biotech-Branche.
Michael Wink studied biology and chemistry in Bonn and was awarded his doctorate from TU Braunschweig in 1980. After gaining his lecturing qualification in 1984/1985, he was awarded a Heisenberg grant by the German Research Council to work at the Max Planck Institute for Breeding Research in Cologne and from then at the gene center of Ludwig-Maximilians University in Munich. Following a chair for pharmaceutical biology at Mainz University in 1988, he accepted the post of Professor for Pharmaceutical Biology at the University of Heidelberg one year later. Between 2002 and 2004 he was the founding and managing director of the Institute for Pharmacy and Molecular Biotechnology, and dean from 2001 to 2005 for the new and popular course in molecular biotechnology offered by the university. Professor Wink's areas of interest include pharmaceutical research, molecular biotechnology, and medicinal plants, as well as research into secondary materials and evolution.
