Jürg Bähler completed his PhD studies on S. pombe meiotic chromosome metabolism at the University of Bern (Switzerland) in 1994 under the supervision of Jürg Kohli. After short stays as a Research Associate in Japan and Switzerland, he worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow with John Pringle at the University of North Carolina (Chapel Hill, USA) and with Paul Nurse at the Imperial Cancer Research Fund (London, UK), studying cellular morphogenesis and cell cycle regulation in fission yeast.
In 2000, Jürg joined the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute as a group leader, and in 2009 he accepted a position as Professor in Cellular System Biology at University College London. The Bähler laboratory studies transcriptional and post-transcriptional gene expression control during cellular proliferation, quiescence/ageing, and stress response using fission yeast as a model system. They apply multiple high-throughput approaches for systems-level understanding of regulatory networks and complex relationships between genotype, phenotype, and environment, including roles of genome variation and evolution, transcriptome regulation, and non-coding RNAs.
