Why this profession?

I want to

  • understand the mechanisms behind complex inflammatory diseases and
  • offer improved diagnostic and therapeutic opportunities for our patients

Why RTG Genes, Environment and Inflammation?

The RTG provides an excellent environment for attracting young researchers to this complex and interdisciplinary research field. Furthermore, by combining the different expertise of the PIs, I expect that the individual projects will greatly profit from a vivid exchange of knowledge and techniques.
