The mission of CeMM, the Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences, is to achieve maximum scientific innovation in molecular medicine for the improvement of health care. CeMM is an international research institute and a founding member of EU-LIFE, an alliance of leading European life science institutes. At CeMM, an international and creative team of scientists and physicians pursue free basic research in the life sciences in a large and vibrant hospital environment with an outstanding medical tradition and practice. CeMM's research is based on post-genomic technologies and focuses on diseases of major societal importance, such as immune and infectious diseases, cancer, aging, and metabolic disorders. CeMM operates in a unique mode of super-collaboration, linking biology with medicine, experimentation with computation, discovery with translation, and science with society and the arts.

CeMM discovers and develops technologies to explore human biology with the aim of defeating disease at its roots. Science is our Medicine!

The Molecular Discovery Platform 

The CeMM Molecular Discovery Platform uses a technology-driven approach to empower the discovery and characterization of such bioactive molecules, including proteins, metabolites, and novel synthetic compounds. These three classes of molecules are also the focus of the three modules that constitute the CeMM Molecular Discovery Platform — Proteomics, Metabolomics, and Chemical Screening. Using the latest technologies and state-of-the art instrumentation, we maximize coverage to biomolecules and enable data generation from minimal biological sample amounts. The platform, with its three sub-facilities, provides services to all groups at CeMM as well as to external customers and thereby intends to contribute initial starting points towards discovering the therapies of the future.

The Proteomics and Metabolomics Facility team at CeMM aims to provide highest quality proteomics and metabolomics analyses on biological and biomedical research samples to their customers. We aim to constantly develop and improve methods to more comprehensively cover the entire human proteome and metabolome and decrease the required sample amounts, while at the same time maintaining rigorous standards in data analysis and quantitation.
