Timeline

2001

Gasser led a research group at the Swiss Institute for Experimental Cancer Research in Epalinges sur Lausanne until 2001, where she coupled biochemical studies with the live imaging of telomeres and repressed chromatin in budding yeast. She was professor of Molecular Biology at the University of Geneva prior to moving in 2004 to be Director of the Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research in Basel. At the FMI she also led a research group studying the spatial organization of double-strand break repair and checkpoint activation in yeast, as well as heterochromatin establishment in C. elegans. From 2005 - 2021 she was full professor at the University of Basel, and since February 2021, she is the Director of the ISREC Foundation, which established the new Agora institute of translational cancer research in 2018. Susan Gasser also holds the position of Guest professor at the University of Lausanne. Initially studying long range chromatin organization in budding yeast, her laboratory combined genetic, biochemical and fluorescence microscopy approaches, developing quantitative live imaging tools to study the subnuclear dynamics of DNA loci in living cells. Her work elucidated roles of histone modifications and turnover in genome stability and in the spatial organization of chromatin in the interphase nucleus, with an emphasis on the function of subnuclear compartments in C. elegans development and tissue differentiation. Gasser has served on review boards and advisory councils throughout Switzerland, Europe. and Japan, and is currently Chair of the Strategic Advisory Board of the Helmholtz Society Health Program of Germany. She serves on the ETH Board (Rat der Eidgenossosichen Technischen Hochschulen) and the Swiss Science Council. She served on the Gairdner Foundation Medical Prize committee, the EMBL Science Advisory Council (SAC), and on numerous Foundation boards in Switzerland. She was vice chairperson and then Chairperson of the EMBO Council (2000-2004) and a member of the President's Science and Technology Advisory Council (PSTAC; 2012-2014) for the European Commission. Susan led the Gender Committee of the Swiss National Science Foundation from 2014- 2019, and initiated the PRIMA program for the promotion of women in academia, actively promoting the careers of women scientists in Switzerland, and in Japan, with the establishment of Women in Science Japan. Susan Gasser was elected to the National Academy of Science (US), the Académie de France, Leopoldina, EMBO, AAAS, as well as the Swiss Academy of Medical Sciences, and received the INSERM International Prize in 2011, the FEBS | EMBO Women in Science Award in 2012, the Weizmann Institute Women in Science award, the Otto Naegeli prize in medical research (2006). She holds honorary doctorates from the University of Lausanne, the University of Fribourg, and the Charles University in Prague. In Switzerland she was also recipient of the Friedrich Miescher Award and the National Latsis Prize.

1982

Susan Gasser received her doctorate from the University of Basel in Biochemistry in 1982 having developed an in vitro system for the import of mitochondrial proteins with Gottfried (Jeff) Schatz at the Biozentrum of the University of Basel, after a BA at the University of Chicago with a Honors thesis in Biophysics (1979). As a post-doctoral fellow at the University of Geneva with Ulrich K. Laemmli, she established roles for topoisomerase II in metaphase chromosome structure (Gasser et al., JMB 1986) and for A/T-rich sequences in long-range chromatin folding (Gasser and Laemmli, Cell 1986). She established her own laboratory at the ISREC Swiss Institute for Experimental Cancer Research in Epalinges in 1986.
