The Friedrich Miescher Institute was established as a foundation on April 10, 1970 by a joint decision of the then two separate companies Ciba AG and J.R. Geigy. Today, under the leadership of Prof. Dr. Susan Gasser, the FMI holds lead positions in the areas of mechanisms of cancer, neurobiology and epigenetics, backed up by state-of-the-art technical resources, in particular in bioinformatics and live cell imaging.
