MDC Lecture: When zombie cells attack, senolytics come to the rescue

James L. Kirkland is not working to eliminate aging altogether, but rather seeks to alleviate or end age-related diseases. The director of the Robert and Arlene Kogod Center on Aging at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, will be giving a virtual lecture on September 21 at the MDC.

New Software detects disease-causing gene mutations

A serious illness is often the result of a single genetic defect. To help locate this genetic “needle in a haystack” scientists at the Bioinformatics Core Unit of the BIH joined forces with colleagues from Charité and the MDC to develop a freely available software. They are presenting it in the journal “Nucleic Acids Research”.

In pursuit of the origin and role of ecDNA

How does cancer develop and how does it progress? Dr. Anton Henssen from the Experimental and Clinical Research Center (ECRC ) wants to find out more about circular DNA in order to use its cancer cell-specific characteristics for therapy, diagnosis or clinical prognosis. He has now been awarded an ERC Starting Grant.

ERC funding for pioneering research

Two MDC scientists – Kathrin de Rosa and Ilaria Piazza – have earned ERC Starting Grants to fuel their pioneering research. They are seeking answers to questions that may one day change the way we approach vaccines and think about how small molecules influence gene expression and disease.
