Job alert in our Institute of Molecular Immunology!
Two PhD positions in the field of immune regulation in autoimmune liver diseases. Both positions are embedded in the newly funded CRC1700 together with Hamburg.
Please check our official job announcement for more information
We are proud to host the GASL Annual Meeting 2025 from 14-15 February in Munich. The GASL program with fanatastic talks and poster is out now! Here you can find it👇
We are proud to announce that the SFB 1700 Initiative "Immunregulation in der Leber: von Homöostase zur Krankheit" in which we will be part of will be funded for the next four years!🥳 Exciting opportunitiy to unravel immune-mediated mechanisms of autoimmune liver diseases!
We are excited that our study on the liver immune rheostat regulating CD8 T cell immunity in chronic HBV infection is published!🥳 @nature (nature.com/articles/s41586-0…)
🔎HBV-specific CD8 T cells are in close & prolonged contact with liver sinusoidal endothelial cells when recognizing their antigen on hepatocytes. We termed this close & prolonged contact an immune rheostat, that increases cAMP-PKA signalling and hampers T cell effector functions
This is a very impressive study just published in @Nature about the molecular and cellular mechanisms of liver regeneration after injury! There are migrating heptocytes😵 nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
Fantastic story from in-house research group @JBoettcherLab out today in @Nature! PGE2 impair the differentiation of stem-like CD8 T cells into effector CD8 T cells locally in the tumor. A very important study for the development of effective anti-cancer immunotherapy
We are thrilled that our study on PGE2-mediated impairment of TCF1 stem-like CD8 T cell responses in cancer, with (twitterless) Sebastian Lacher as first author, is now published @Nature! 👇 a short 🧵 below!

Please check out this exciting symposium @dkfz@DKFZImmunology coming up June 5 and 6! Fantastic international speakers on #immunology, #virology and #cancer!
Ask you students if they are interested– deadline for poster abstracts is April 30!
