Ralf Schnabel is currently professor and the head of the Institute of Genetics at the Technical University Carolo Wilhelmina Braunschweig, in Braunschweig, Germany. After obtaining his Ph.D. from the Ludwig-Maximilians-University, in Munich, Germany in 1983, he worked for several years as a postdoctoral fellow under Nobel Prize Laureate Sydney Brenner, studying C. elegans. He returned to Germany in 1987, taking up a position as Group leader at the MPI for Developmental Biology in the laboratory of C. Nüsslein-Volhard (Nobel Prize for Medicine and Physiology 1995) and was later appointed Independent group leader at the MPI for Biochemistry. He also serves as a scientific advisor to industry.
His current research interests lie in studying embryonic development of C. elegans using methods of classical genetics in order to understand the underlying mechanisms involved in cell fate determination.
