The Institute of Pharmacology's mission is to explore new pharmacological approaches to combat pro-inflammatory diseases, allergies, asthma and leukemia. We study the transport of ions across cell membranes and between organelles using an innovative approach that combines cell and molecular biological methods with electrophysiological and ultrastructural techniques. When it comes to immune responses, we aim to better understand the importance and regulation of cation channels.

Symposium of the Austrian Pharmacological Society 2024
The Institute of Pharmacology presented current research results at the 28th Scientific Symposium of the Austrian Pharmacological Society (APHAR) in Innsbruck from September 23 to 25, 2024. Institute members Anna Madlmayr, Tobias Ruff and Philip Steiner took the opportunity to present their work and teaching objectives and to discuss them with leading representatives of Austrian pharmacology. The symposium offered an excellent platform for scientific exchange and networking in the field of experimental and clinical pharmacology.
European Microscopy Congress 2024
Philip Steiner presented recent scientific findings in cellular pharmacology at the European Microscopy Congress 2024 in Copenhagen. The opportunity to discuss new insights with leading representatives in the field fostered valuable exchange and new perspectives for future research projects.
Biophysics Austria Conference 2024
Anna Madlmayr and Philip Steiner successfully represented the institute with scientific contributions at the Biophysics Austria Conference 2024 in Salzburg. The conference offered an exciting interdisciplinary exchange and valuable new scientific perspectives.
Thesis Defense
We offer our congratulation to Julia Eder on the successful defense of her Masters thesis"Investigations into TRPM7 blockade in human T cells". Julia studied pharmacy at the PMU Salzburg. As part of the master's program, she completed her research module at our institute, supervised by Birgit Karner-Höger.
