Overview

Hans-Ulrich Demuth is affiliated with the Fraunhofer Society in Germany and conducts research primarily in the fields of Medicine and Neuroscience. Their work extends into subfields such as Oncology, Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience, and Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism.

The scientist's research focuses on topics including Peptidase Inhibition and Analysis, Neuropeptides and Animal Physiology, and Diabetes Treatment and Management. These areas are reflected in their recent publications and ongoing studies.

Relevant publication venues where Demuth's work appears include PLoS ONE and bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory). Two of their recent papers are:

  • Contribution of amino acids in the active site of dipeptidyl peptidase 4 to the catalytic action of the enzyme, 2024, PLoS ONE
  • Contribution of amino acids in the Active site of Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 to the catalytic action of the enzyme, 2023, bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)

Demuth frequently collaborates with other researchers, including Kathrin Gnoth, Joachim Wolfgang Bär, Fred Rosche, and Jens-Ulrich Rahfeld, each having coauthored multiple publications with them.
