Science December 17, 2020 The DNA repair analyst In order for the human immune system to effectively fight off pathogens, B cells need to smash up and reassemble their own DNA. Michela Di Virgilio searches for factors controlling this important process, which also have crucial implications for our predisposition to cancer.
Institute & Campus January 18, 2021 We encourage curiosity! The HIDA Trainee Network is back for a second time in 2021. The exchange program promotes interdisciplinary networking between young scientists at Helmholtz and helps them learn from one another
Science January 15, 2021 Calling all young STEM talent The 57th edition of the “Jugend forscht” competition will soon kick off under the theme “Lass Zukunft da.” The MDC is once again co-sponsoring the search for tomorrow’s scientists – this year to be held fully virtual. The young researchers apparently don’t mind the new format: almost 9,000 children and young people have signed up for the competition so far.
Science January 12, 2021 Dancing spaghetti on the brain In December 2020, biophysicist Melissa Birol joined the MDC as a new junior group leader to investigate the behavior and function of disordered proteins in brain cells.
60 January 11, 2021 A potent weapon against lymphomas MDC researchers have developed a new approach to CAR T-cell therapy. The team has shown in Nature Communications that the procedure is very effective, especially when it comes to fighting follicular lymphomas and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, the most common type of blood cancer in adults.
59 December 28, 2020 Integration of BIH into Charité and the privileged partnership with the MDC On January 1, 2021, the Berlin Institute of Health (BIH ) will become the translational research unit of Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin and will then form – alongside the hospital and the medical faculty – Charité’s third pillar.
