Systems Immunology
To see the immune system with the eyes of mathematics – that is the guiding principle of the department Systems Immunology. Mathematical models help to faster and better understand diseases that are associated with immune functions. Read here how scientists use mathematics to investigate chronic inflammatory diseases, the regulation of adaptive immune responses, and the interaction between the nervous, the endocrine and the immune system.
Central Facility for Microscopy
Light microscopy and electron microscopy are excellent high resolution tools to investigate the adhesion and invasion mechanisms of pathogenic bacteria. High resolution electron microscopy permits to examine and unravel pathogenicity mechanisms on a morphological basis. ZEIM offers equipment and highly sophisticated expertise for the preparation and observation of biological samples.
Universal Flu Vaccine Candidate Protects Against Infection in Animal Models
Researchers at Cleveland Clinic’s Lerner Research Institute and the HZI have reported that their universal flu vaccine candidate elicited a strong immune response and provided protection against severe infection and rapid clearance after viral exposure in ferrets. This…
Enter the world of infection research - Open Day at the HZI
During guided tours, HZI researchers explain, for example, how new active substances against infections can be developed from natural products or how they use epidemiological studies to understand the spread of diseases and contribute to the health of the population. In…
