  • Studium in Frankfurt/Main und Tübingen, Diplom in Biochemie (1968), Promotion in Genetik, Tübingen (1973).

  • Postdoc in Basel und Freiburg, Gruppenleiterin am Europäischen Labor für Molekularbiologie, Heidelberg (1978-1981) und am Friedrich-Miescher-Laboratorium der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft in Tübingen (1981-1984).

  • Seit 1985 wissenschaftliches Mitglied der Max- Planck-Gesellschaft und Direktorin am Max-Planck-Institut für Entwicklungsbiologie in Tübingen. Ihre Forschungen befassen sich mit der genetischen und molekularen Analyse der embryonalen Entwicklung bei Tieren, insbesondere der Fliege Drosophila melanogaster, sowie dem Zebrafish Danio rerio.

    Für ihre Entdeckungen von Genen, die die Entwicklung von Tier und Mensch steuern, sowie den Nachweis von gestaltbildenden Gradienten im Fliegenembryo hat sie zahlreiche Auszeichnungen, Ehrendoktorate  und Preise erhalten, unter anderem den Leibnizpreis der Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft (1986), den Albert Lasker Medical Research Award (1991) und den Nobelpreis für Medizin (1995). Sie ist Mitglied der Royal Society (England), der National Academy (USA), des Ordens pour le mérite (Deutschland), der Leopoldina (Deutschland), der Berlin-Brandenburgischen Akademie (Deutschland), der Kurie der Wissenschaft (Österreich) und der Académie des Sciences (Frankreich). Von 2001 bis 2006 gehörte sie dem nationalen Ethikrat der Bundesregierung an. Sie war Präsidentin der Gesellschaft deutscher Naturforscher und Ärzte bis 2008 und Generalsekretärin der European Molecular Biology Organisation (EMBO) bis 2009. Seit 2005 ist sie Mitglied des Scientific Council des European Research Councils (ERC) der Europäischen Union. Seit 2010 ist sie Vizekanzlerin des Ordens Pour Le Mérite. Sie gründete 2004 die Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard  Stiftung zur Unterstützung junger Wissenschaftlerinnen mit Kindern. 

Ihre Hobbys sind Musik (Gesang, Flöte, Kammermusik), Gartengestaltung und Kochen. Sie ist Vorsitzende des Kuratoriums der Internationalen Hugo-Wolf-Akademie e.V., Stuttgart.
