The publication "Ackermann et al. 2020" shows new insights in the development of human blood stem cells. Ackermann and colleagues used IPSC and organoids to show the formation of blood cells.
The publication "Hahn/Pollmann et al. 2020" sets the foundation for the first gene therapy of IFNgR1-deficient MSMD. The authors reverse cells from patients with lentiviral vectors. For more information click here.
"Haake et al. 2020" provides insights into the formation of Mendelian Suscpetibility to Mycobacterial Disease. IPSC from patients are established and point out to be important cells for MSMD. For more information click here.
We are proud to announce that Jenny Lam, our first MD student, successfully defended her MD thesis on macrophages,iPSC and the disease model for IFNGR1 deficiency!
We are happy to announce, that our group head is now associate professor (W2) at Hannover Medical School investigating new forms of treatment targeting infections of the lower respiratory tract.
The American Society for Gene and Cell Therapy (ASGCT) awards the work of Kathrin Haake with an "Excellence in Research" award.
