Aktuelle Ausgabe „wissen + forschen“ zum Thema Visionäre Medizinforschung
Die Medizin der Zukunft hat - auch wenn der erste Eindruck es glauben macht - nichts mit unendlichen Weiten und fernen Galaxien zu tun. Zur Präzisionsmedizin gehört die CAR-T-Zelltherapie, die bereits seit 2019 erfolgreich im UKE angewandt wird. Dabei wird das Immunsystem mobilisiert, sich gegen bösartige Krebszellen zu wehren. Unterm Mikroskop sieht die Auseinandersetzung wie ein Geschehen im Weltraum aus. Die Immuntherapie ist ein Beispiel für die Medizin der Zukunft, an der im UKE intensiv geforscht wird. Weitere finden Sie hier und in der neuen Ausgabe unseres Magazins wissen+forschen.
