Professor Andreas H. Guse is a researcher pursuing interests in the fields of biochemistry, molecular biology, cell biology of cellular signal transduction and molecular mechanisms of T cell activation. He is also interested in immunopharmacology and the design of anti-inflammatory drugs, high resolution optical techniques for cell signaling research and research in medical education. His work has been published in Nature Chemical BiologyScience SignalingThe Journal of Biological ChemistryBrain and Nature, among others. To date, Prof. Guse has 119 PubMed listed publications on biochemistry, cell and molecular biology, and medical education.

Prof. Guse earned his diploma degree in Biology at the University of Hamburg between 1980-87. He then received his Dr. rer. nat. doctoral degree from the University of Hamburg in 1990 and his Dr. med. habil. from the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg in 1993. He became Privatdozent at the University of Hambury in 1994 and Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology there in 2000. Since 2007 Prof. Guse has held the position of Vice Dean of Education of the Medical Faculty at the University of Hamburg and since 2013 her has been Director of the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Cell Biology at University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf.

Prof. Guse is a member of the editorial boards of Messenger and Scientific Reports and the overseas Editor-in-Chief of The Journal of Chinese Pharmaceutical Sciences. In 2000 he won the Research Award of the Germany Society for Cell Biology for research into the role of cyclic ADP-ribose in T-lymphocytes and in 2006 he was awarded the silver medal by the Peking University Health Science Center.
