{{Use dmy dates|date=August 2016}}Susan M. Gasser is a professor of molecular biology at the University of Basel. She is currently the director of Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research since November 2004.[1]Early careerSusan Gasser received her doctorate at the University of Basel in Biochemistry for the development of an in vitro system for the import of mitochondrial proteins with Gottfried (Jeff) Schatz. She studied the long-range folding of the genome in flies and human cells as a post-doctoral fellow at the University of Geneva with Ulrich K. Laemmli .[1][2] CareerGasser presently holds a professorship at the University of Basel and runs a research laboratory at the FMI as well as leading the institute. From 1986 to 2001, Gasser led a research group at the Swiss Institute for Experimental Cancer Research. She discovered and documented the clustering of yeast telomeres at the nuclear envelope, and elucidated the role of this subnuclear distribution in heritable gene repression using a combined genetic and fluorescence microscopy approach. From 2001 to 2004, Gasser was a professor of Molecular Biology at the University of Geneva. Since 2004, she is the Director of the Friedrich Miescher Institute in Basel, and Professor of Molecular Biology at the University of Basel. Gasser has served on review boards and advisory councils throughout Switzerland and Europe.[1][2][6] Career history- 1977-1979: University of Chicago, Illinois, United States, Bachelor of Arts with honours in biophysics[3]
