Overview

Christoph Dieterich is affiliated with University Hospital Heidelberg in Germany. Their primary research domain lies within Biochemistry, Genetics, and Molecular Biology, having authored 332 publications in this field. Within this broad discipline, Dieterich has focused extensively on Molecular Biology, Cancer Research, Cardiology and Cardiovascular Medicine, Artificial Intelligence, and Biomedical Engineering.

Dieterich's research topics include RNA modifications and cancer, RNA research and splicing, RNA and protein synthesis mechanisms, cancer-related molecular mechanisms research, circular RNAs in diseases, microRNA in disease regulation, and genomics and phylogenetic studies.

Notable recent publications include:

  • A spatially resolved brain region- and cell type-specific isoform atlas of the postnatal mouse brain (2021, Nature Communications)
  • An Insulin-Sensitive Circular RNA that Regulates Lifespan in Drosophila (2020, Molecular Cell)
  • Deep and accurate detection of m6A RNA modifications using miCLIP2 and m6Aboost machine learning (2021, Nucleic Acids Research)
  • SMG5-SMG7 authorize nonsense-mediated mRNA decay by enabling SMG6 endonucleolytic activity (2021, Nature Communications)
  • RNA modification mapping with JACUSA2 (2022, Genome Biology)

Christoph Dieterich's publications are frequently featured in journals and repositories such as bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research), Nature Communications, Nucleic Acids Research, and RNA.

Frequent collaborators include Isabel S. Naarmann-de Vries, Thiago Britto-Borges, Janine Altmüller, Etienne Boileau, and Niels H. Gehring.

Dieterich has contributed to book publications as well, with a recent work titled Circular RNAs published by Springer Science+Business Media in 2024.
