Dagmar Iber

Dagmar Iber’s research focuses on the development of mechanistic models for cellular signaling processes. Her group particularly focuses on the mechanisms by which functional patterns emerge during embryonic development (i.e. lung, limb and bone development).Close collaborations with experimental laboratories permit a cycle of model testing and improvement. The ultimate goal of her research is to gain a comprehensive understanding of the dynamics and evolution of complex cellular signaling networks.

Dagmar Iber studied mathematics and biochemistry in Regensburg, Cambridge, and Oxford. She holds Master degrees and PhDs in both disciplines. After three years as a Junior Research Fellow in St John’s College, Oxford, Dagmar became a lecturer in Applied Mathematics at Imperial College London. Dagmar has joined ETH Zuerich in 2008 after returning from an investment bank where she worked as an oil option trader for one year.
