The Hedtrich Lab strives to understand and tackle inflammatory and genetic diseases of human epithelia with a current focus on skin, lungs, and intestine. As we firmly believe that human-based models are critical to close the current translational gap in biomedical research, my lab’s research relies on complex human-based organ- and organ-on-chip…

Research of Molecular Epidemiology Unit at the Berlin Institute of Health and the Charité is focused on epigenetic modifications that occur in close interaction between the individual genetic background and environmental exposure and potentially contribute to increased disease risks. Thereby, we are in particular interested to identify key events…
