沃哈德是一位发育遗传学家，也是德国有史以来第一位获诺见尔奖的女科学家。她与韦乔斯一起，以经典遗传学的方法来研究果蝇胚胎发育中的关键性事件，从而促成了遗传学与发育学的联姻。他们在果蝇胚胎中所发现的三类与分节有关的基因，描述了早期发育中的关键步骤，被认为具有重大意义。
Vohad is a developmental geneticist and the first woman scientist to win a prize in Germany’s history. Together with Vejos, she studied the key events in Drosophila embryo development in a classical genetics fashion, which led to the marriage of genetics and development. Three of the segment-related genes that they found in Drosophila embryos describe the key steps in early development and are considered of great significance.
