BINDER Research & Progress
BINDER Innovation Prize: An excellent idea.
Since 1998, the BINDER Innovation Prize has been awarded annually by the Germany Society for Cell Biology (DGZ). The award is endowed by BINDER. It is given for outstanding work in basic cell biology research.
With this commitment, BINDER supports progress in the life sciences and strengthens the close cooperation with science and research in the long-term. BINDER is an ideal partner for the realization of challenging tasks especially for cell cultivation.
