the main goals of nextGENERATION is to translate regenerative concepts into advanced therapies for patients. To do this, we use cutting-edge technologies of regenerative medicine to repair tissues and organs [...] these cutting-edge technologies, but they also become better acquainted with the requirements of patient care and further their careers by working independently. The three-year programme is designed for [...] 2023. The application deadline is 5 March 2023. Training that translates biomedical progress into patient well-being The nextGENERATION participants will be individually supervised in the implementation

the mucus deposits and liquefies them. However, this effect, known as osmosis, cannot occur in PCD patients because their cells immediately pass the sodium (Na+) of the inhaled table salt (NaCl) into the [...] when inhaled and to be transported away more easily, which measurably improved lung function in the patients. The results of the study are published in the journal The Lancet Respiratory Medicine. Difficult [...] anti-inflammatory drugs have to be taken constantly," emphasises the physician. It is not uncommon for patients to suffer for a long time before the disease is even clearly diagnosed. PCD manifests itself differently

organs, tissue or blood are such gifts. Without them, many hospitals would not be able to help their patients adequately, and those affected would not be able to live at all or only with great restrictions [...] Anyone who would like to say thank you for these mostly anonymous donations can now do so in the patient garden at Hannover Medical School (MHH). On the initiative of the Clinical Ethics Committee (KEK) [...] medicine at the MHH is a success story" - but until now there had been no place where transplanted patients could say thank you. This has now been created. Organ donation is a gift "The 'DankeMal' is intended

With the new test, which already provides results within half a day, numerous patients with liver disease could be spared a [...] triggered by an immunological malfunction. In this case, the immune system falsely recognises the patient's own liver cells as "foreign to the body". The symptoms of this rare liver disease are unspecific [...] other liver diseases. In the process, they came across an unusual immunoglobulin in the blood of AIH patients. "They have the special property of being able to bind with very many human proteins," explains

technology and biology researched, but the patient perspective is also included in all research and development steps from the very beginning. Research into doctor-patient interaction will contribute significantly [...] Music, Drama and Media (HMTMH) will jointly research the development of new implants to increase patient safety. "This extremely challenging task can only be tackled jointly between the institutions involved [...] significantly to a further increase in future implant and thus patient safety.

quickly. "This can be seen right now during the Corona pandemic," he explained. "Whether it's in patient care or research, we're making enormous contributions to help those who are sick, to research the [...] administrative processes," said Professor Manns. "Professor Lammert, as the new Vice President for Patient Care, combines exactly the expertise we need as a medical doctor and economist. And with architect [...] "Medicine is becoming increasingly interconnected," said Professor Dr. Frank Lammert, Vice President for Patient Care. "As a pilot project, the MHH must drive greater interlinking of outpatient and inpatient care

Thanks to this innovation, doctors can perform therapeutic interventions faster and more precisely. Patients also benefit from a lower dose of X-rays. The MHH is one of the first clinics worldwide to use such [...] navigation, the needle required for this can be placed in a targeted manner. Green laser beams on the patient's skin provide the coordinates and mark the exact puncture site. But not only that, they also guide [...] This makes laser navigation much more precise, we need less time for the interventions and the patients are exposed to less radiation," says Professor Dr. Wacker. In addition, the new device is very suitable

With this approach, both have done real pioneering work in tra [...] and basic research in a unique way, especially with regard to the reality of care for oncological patients. "Due to the special merits of Professor and Professor Döhner, we have decided this year to award [...] industrialised countries. Worldwide, there are about 650,000 new cases every year. About half of these patients usually do not survive the disease, even if the carcinoma is surgically removed and, depending on

At the same time, the transplanted [...] immune switches that dock to structures that are mainly located on the tumor cell, but not on the patient’s immune cells,” says Professor Schambach. Soften immunosuppression in tumor environment However, [...] efficacy and safety. This is done in cell culture, in surgically removed tumour tissue from cancer patients and in mouse models. “In this project, we want to prove that CAR-NK-based cancer treatment can be

The pacemaker is usually placed [...] for Cardiology and Angiology. The cardiologist is therefore pleased to be able to offer certain patients therapy with an alternative device. This is the electrodeless pacemaker AVEIR VR. It is particularly [...] relieve these symptoms. Implanting a pacemaker takes about 30 minutes in an uncomplicated procedure. Patients usually have to stay in the hospital for one night afterward and can then go home. Text: Tina Götting
