Title
In vivo study of the inflammatory response that follows vaccination in the draining lymph node

Date and Time
Tuesday, September 24, 2019 at 11:00 a.m

Location
Lecture Hall, Lehrgebäude (Building 10)
Venusberg-Campus 1, 53127 Bonn

Host
Prof. Veronika Lukacs-Kornek

Santiago F. González holds two PhD degrees, one in microbiology from the University of Santiago de Compostela (Spain) and one in immunology from the University of Copenhagen (Denmark). He has been awarded three EU Marie Curie Fellowships. He found during his work in Harvard that dendritic cells residing in the lymph node medulla use the lectin receptor SIGN-R1 to capture lymph-borne influenza virus and promote humoral immunity. These results have important implications for the generation of durable humoral immunity to viral pathogens through vaccination and were published in Nature Immunology. In November 2012 he joined the Institute for Research in Biomedicine in Bellinzona as a group leader studying pathogen-host interaction.

He is Reader in Molecular Pharmacology and the Director of the QMUL Lipid mediator Unit at the Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry and Queen Mary College. Using a multidisciplinary approach his research is focused on the structural elucidation of novel omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid-derived bioactive mediators and determining the regulation of these molecules during health and diseases. His research also aims to assess cellular targets and molecular mechanisms through which these mediators exert their immune directed actions in inflammation-resolution, clearance of bacterial infections and tissue repair/regeneration. More recently his lab has also focused on the role of the pro-resolving mediators in mediating the immune directed actions of the nervous system, primarily the vagus nerve.

Title
Epigenetic Determinants of CD8+ T cell Exhaustion

Date and Time
Tuesda, June 18, 2019 at 11:00 a.m

Location
Lecture hall (basement floor)
Biomedizinisches Zentrum (BMZ), Venusberg

Host
Prof. Christian Kurts & Dr. Zeinab Abdullah

T cell exhaustion describes an acquired dysfunction common in settings of chronic viral infection. Despite clinical efforts to rescue exhaustion, the fundamental mechanisms specifying this state, and the potential for reprogramming exhausted T cells, remain poorly understood. Since the epigenome can govern cell state, we profiled accessible chromatin in exhausted CD8+ T cells. Exhausted cells acquired a state-specific landscape of enhancers that profoundly differed from functional memory. Comparison of mouse cells to those isolated from HCV and HIV infection identified a conserved epigenetic program of exhaustion. Critically, CD8+ tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) also shared epigenetic and transcriptional features with chronic viral infection, suggesting that T cell exhaustion is a fundamental adaptation to settings of chronic stimulation.

Date and Time
Monday, June 17, 2019 at 11:30 a.m (11:30 Hrs)

Location
Lecture hall (basement floor)
Biomedizinisches Zentrum (BMZ), Venusberg

Host
Prof. Dr. Katrin Paeschke

Dr. Markus Hafner an Earl Stadtman Tenure-Track Investigator at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, MD. His RNA Molecular Biology Group (RMBG) studies the impact of RNA binding proteins (RBPs) on posttranscriptional gene regulation (PTGR). PTGR summarizes various processes acting upon coding and non-coding RNA and includes RNA maturation, ribonucleoprotein (RNP) assembly, transport, translation, and turnover. The recent introduction of large-scale quantitative methods, such as next-generation sequencing (NGS) and modern mass spectrometry (MS), allows for the first time determination of the functional impact of RBPs on a systems-wide level and has sparked a renewed interest in the systematic characterization of PTGR processes. Members of the RMBG focus on elucidating the function and molecular mechanisms of RNA binding proteins involved in RNA transport, RNA stability and turnover, and RNA translation.

'Exkurs' Seminar by DFG with Prof. Markus Nöthen

March 21, 2018 - February 21, 2018

Psychiatrische Erkankungen - welche Rolle spielen die Gene?
Prof. Markus Nöthen

Termin: 21. März 2018, 19:00 Uhr
Ort: Wissenschaftszentrum Bonn
Bei der Entwicklung von psychiatrischen Erkrankungen spielen Gene eine wichtige Rolle. Welche Gene jedoch an Leiden wie etwa der Schizophrenie beteiligt sind, war bis vor wenigen Jahren kaum bekannt. Mit Methoden der modernen Molekulargenetik konnte mittlerweile eine große Zahl dieser Gene identifiziert werden.
Doch helfen die genetischen Befunde, die Ursachen psychiatrischer Erkrankungen besser zu verstehen? Werden genetische Tests künftig die Diagnose erleichtern und die Entwicklung neuer Medikamente ermöglichen? Und kann man mit genetischen Tests das spätere Auftreten psychiatrischer Krankheiten vorhersagen?
Diese Fragen beleuchtet der Humangenetiker Markus Nöthen in seinem Vortrag. Er wird aber auch auf die Grenzen genetischer Erkenntnisse eingehen und darstellen, wie weit die Forschung noch von einem umfassenden Verständnis über die Ursachen psychiatrischer Erkrankungen entfernt ist.

DZNE Music & Brain with Prof. Dr. Thomas Wolbers

January 22, 2018 - January 22, 2018

The DZNE cordially invites you to the 43th installment of our Music & Brain series on Monday, 22th January 2018 at 6:00 pm at the LVR-LandesMuseum Bonn, Colmantstraße 14 - 16, in 53115 Bonn.
In his talk “Maps in the brain” Prof. Dr. Thomas Wolbers will present the latest n- dings on the sense of direction, a key cognitive ability that often deteriorates in old age and in dementia patients. How does the brain enable us to navigate our complex environments, how do people with a good sense of direction differ from those with a bad sense of direction, and how does this ability change in old age?
Since 2012, Prof. Dr. Wolbers has been heading the “Aging and Cognition” research group at the DZNE Magdeburg. His research program aims at understanding which alterations in the brain lead to memory decline in old age and what can be done to prevent it.
Following the presentation will be a recital featuring works by Mozart, Schubert and Liszt et al. for soprano, piano and clarinet.
