Emanuel Wyler

Emanuel Wyler, originally from Switzerland, earned his PhD in biochemistry and molecular biology in Zurich/Switzerland and Paris/France. Since 2011, he has been working as a scientist at the Max Delbrück Center in Berlin/Germany. Emanuel’s research focus is on investigating viruses and other human pathogens using “big data” techniques. This includes research on how herpes simplex virus and SARS-CoV-2 actually make us sick, and how our bodies respond to them. Since the pandemic, he uses wastewater to study how viruses develop and spread across the human population.
