The University Hospital of Tübingen is a leading center of German university medicine. Every year, around 75,000 inpatients and around 380,000 outpatients are treated. With around 10,600 employees, it is the largest employer in the region. The quality of patient care is certified with the KTQ seal of approval.
Inflammation is the first line defense protecting out bodies against various infections and damages. However, dysregulated due to mutations, environmental factors or lifestyle, inflammation does more bad than good. Indeed, chronic inflammation stands behind such pathologies as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, neurodegeneration, cancer and many other diseases of the modern-day society. The HYPERLINK "https://www.andreevalab.com/" Andreeva lab (www.andreevalab.com) focuses on structural and functional aspects of inflammatory pathways underlying these pathologies. By using a combination of structural, biochemical and cell-based approaches we aim to comprehensively explain inflammatory pathways from molecular to cellular level, which is crucial for clinical applications and development of novel anti-inflammatory treatments, as well as next generation cancer diagnostics and therapeutics, which are the main goal of the iFIT Cluster of Excellence „Image Guided and Functionally Instructed Tumor Therapies (iFIT)“ consortium, which we are part of.
