The Berlin Brains lecture series at Urania shows the breadth and depth of this research expertise in the capital city – this year under the theme “Junior Meets Senior.” The MDC’s Thomas Willnow and Anna Löwa are kicking off the series. 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 Press Release No. 1 January 11, 2021 Berlin 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. Press Release No. 59 December 28, 2020 Berlin 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. Science December 23, 2020 Current DFG funding for MDC researchers Bone regeneration, dynamic hydrogels and the novel coronavirus – these three topics are currently being researched by MDC scientists in two new Collaborative Research Centres and as part of the COVID-19 Focus Funding initiative of the German Research Foundation (DFG ). Press Release No. 57 December 21, 2020 Berlin The Achilles’ heel of cancer stem cells Colon cancer stem cells have one weak spot: the enzyme Mll1. An MDC team led by Walter Birchmeier has now shown in Nature Communications that blocking this protein prevents the development of new tumors in the body. Institute & Campus December 18, 2020 Postdoc Day: “Young people are making the future” More than 150 postdocs and senior Ph.D. students from across the capital joined for a virtual Berlin Science Postdoc Day to present research, build skills and network. Emmanuelle Charpentier, who shares the 2020 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, was the keynote speaker. Science December 16, 2020 New textbook for computational genomics A new textbook “Computational Genomics with R” written by MDC’s Altuna Akalin will be published this month. The book aims to assist to a wide range of readers, providing both an introduction to genomics and step-by-step instructions to help biologists analyze their own datasets. Press Release No. 56 December 11, 2020 Berlin Muscle cell secrets A muscle fiber consists of just one cell, but many nuclei. A team at the MDC led by Professor Carmen Birchmeier has now shown just how varied these nuclei are. The study, which has been published in Nature Communications, can help us better understand muscle diseases such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Institute & Campus December 02, 2020 A life for science The MDC community is mourning the loss of Heinz Bielka, a pioneer of cell and molecular biology, science historian, and committed Buch citizen. From 1953 until his retirement, Bielka served in important positions on the campus. He was 91 years old. His outstanding contributions will be long remembered.
