Lassa virus immunology
Sprache: Deutsch / Englisch
Gesprächspartner /-in: Ludmilla Unrau
As an immunologist, I am fascinated by the interactions and characteristics of the cells of the immune system, which are essential in the fight against viruses. Researching these is exciting, but also challenging in the case of the highly pathogenic Lassa virus, classified as biosafety level 4 pathogen. I invite you to talk to me about immunological research in Germany and Nigeria.

Role of human microRNAs in the pathogenesis of Malaria
Sprache: English
Gesprächspartner /-in: Nahla Metwally
Since its discovery in 1993, microRNAs has been recognised as essential molecule for gene regulation. microRNAs could be an appropriate drug target for the treatment of infectious diseases. Until now their role in Malaria complications is not well understood. In my research I characterise how the microRNA profiles of human brain and lung endothelial cells are affected during malaria infection.
