Jörg Vogel(born 1 April 1967 inCottbus,East Germany) is a German scientist in the field of RNA biology and microbiology. He is Professor and Director of the Institute for Molecular Infection Biology (IMIB) at theJulius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg,Germany. Since 2017, he has also headed the Helmholtz-Institut für RNA-basierte Infektionsforschung (Helmholtz Institute for RNA-based Infection Research, HIRI), the world’s first research institution to combine RNA and infection research.[1]

Vogel studied biochemistry at theHumboldt University of Berlinand theImperial College London.[2]After completing his PhD work (1996–1999) he performed postdoctoral research at theUppsala University,Sweden and was an EMBO fellow at theHebrew University Jerusalem,Israel. From 2004 to 2010, he headed a research group at theMax Planck Institute for Infection Biologyin Berlin (MPIIB). Since 2009, he has been a W3 professor at IMIB andJörg Hacker’s successor as head of the institute.[3]

Vogel’s research activities include small, regulatory RNA molecules, RNA sequencing, RNA localization, as well as microRNA and long, non-coding RNA molecules in infected host cells. Among other achievements, he was a pioneer in the application of high-throughput RNA sequencing for the analysis of bacterial transcriptomes, the study of CRISPR RNA maturation, and interactions between pathogenic bacteria and their hosts.[4] [5] [6] [7] [8]Jörg Vogel has contributed to more than 200 scientific publications including many articles in high impact journals likeNature,CellandScience.[9]

In 2010, he received the VAAM Research Award, and in 2011, the Senior Scientist Award of the DGHM.[10]In the same year, he was honored with an EMBO membership for his extraordinary research.[11]In 2013, Vogel was elected to theAmerican Academy of Microbiology[12]and theGerman Academy of Sciences Leopoldina.[13]Since 2015, Jörg Vogel has been continuously listed byClarivateas a frequently cited researcher in the field of microbiology.[14]Since 2016, he has been avisiting professoratImperial College Londonin the Department of Infectious Diseases.[15]Vogel is also one of the awardees of the 2017Leibniz Prize,the most important research award in Germany.[16]Since 1 January 2021 Jörg Vogel has been President of theEuropean Academy of Microbiology.[17]
