During an examination in the electrophysiology [...] even more precisely," explains Professor Duncker. On a large screen above the examination table, the team can follow the procedure live and call up other images that are important for the procedure, such

Until now, it was only possible to say how effective this therapy is months later. Now, a research team led by Dr. Christian Schultze-Florey and Professor Dr. Christian Könecke from the Department of H [...] diagnosis of leukaemia relapse. Biomarker also helps prevent overtreatment According to the research team, the CD8+ T-cell receptor analysis is a promising tool to predict whether the treatment with donor

The project is a telemedical offer with several modules, in which [...] their patients to an interdisciplinary video consultation with one or more specialists from the MHH team to discuss further care. The third module deals with particularly complex cases. In addition to the

A research team led by Professor Dr. Christian Bär from the Institute of Molecular and Translational Therapy Strategies [...] ” explains Professor Bär. Chimeric mouse models with different organ and immune ages The research team will first investigate the role of immune and organ aging in the heart and lungs. For this purpose

balance. Responsible for this is a mutation in a gene called MYO7A, which Professor Schambach and his team are focusing on. If a person inherits the damaged gene from both father and mother, no healthy variant [...] gene, we need a gene taxi with a large boot, so to speak," says Professor Schambach. The research team therefore uses lentiviral vectors (LV), which can carry a large amount of genetic material without

The focus is [...] glycan." Understanding processes better Using state-of-the-art analytical methods, the MHH research teams now want to uncover which different forms of sialic acid occur and which biochemical processes regulate

As part of her doctoral [...] result of the biopsy, the liver values, the kidney function and other concomitant diseases, the medical team was able to adjust the immunosuppression individually for each patient. Because: Not every patient
