Aignostics, a spin-off of Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin and alumnus of the Berlin Institute of Health Digital Health Accelerator Program, has been named to Newsweek’s inaugural ranking of the “World’s Best Digital Health Companies 2024.”
On 28 February 2024, the team from Charité BIH Innovation (CBI) - the joint technology transfer of Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin and the Berlin Institute of Health (BIH) - was delighted to receive a visit from Prof. Heyo. K. Kroemer, Chairman of the Executive Board of Charité, Prof. Dr Joachim Spranger, Dean of Charité, Prof. Dr Christopher…
Twice a year, the start-up competition Gründungswettbewerb – Digitale Innovationen by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection's (BMWK) honors the best ideas of innovative start-ups that are based on digital technologies. The award supports start-ups in the early stages and emphasizes their key role as drivers of innovation…
On May 31, 2023, the sixth annual Demo Day of the BIH Digital Health Accelerator Program took place, bringing together a diverse group of innovative minds in the heart of Berlin. The event, hosted by the Berlin Institute of Health at Charité (BIH), showcased seven exceptional teams of Charité/BIH clinicians and researchers presenting their digital…
The Integrative Vascular Biology Laboratory aims to unravel the fundamental principles and molecular/genetic regulation of functional vascular network formation in development and disease.
Our motivation is to address fundamental biological questions of human immunology and translate them into innovative therapies. In this respect, the core interest of our laboratory lies in the discovery of new applications of antibodies and B cells to treat and prevent challenging human diseases.
The Sawitzki lab investigates the molecular mechanisms of immune cell activation and tolerance induction, in order to better understand why components of the immune response themselves become a trigger of destructive inflammatory reactions, like e.g. in the context of autoimmune diseases, rejection reactions after organ transplantation or COVID19…
Not only the DNA sequence – our genome – but also the 3D structure of our genome – the 'epi-genome' – is essential in determining the type and function of a cell. That's why the analysis of the epigenome facilitates deep insights into the developmental history of a cell and its current gene expression profile, but also allows deductions on its…
The Potente laboratory focuses on the vasculature—the largest organ in the human body. We study how vascular networks develop and remodel and how their function becomes abnormal in disease states.
We investigate clinical pathophysiological metabolic changes of muscle and fat tissue in chronic diseases. In clinical work, cardiovascular knowledge is combined with acute therapy and stroke rehabilitation. Our research is focused on metabolic pathophysiology, which leads to weight loss and loss of muscle mass, cachexia and sarcopenia in chronic…
