Melanie Schirmer
More and more people are suffering from chronic inflammatory diseases and autoimmune disorders. In many of these conditions, there is also an imbalance in the microbiome. But how are these things connected? What role do gut bacteria play in these diseases? And why are autoimmune disorders more common in women? Professor Melanie Schirmer will explore these and other questions in her talk at TUM@Freising.
Admission starts at 6.30 pm and admission is free. Prior registration is not necessary.
Series of events TUM@Freising
Science - explained for everyone: Meet researchers from the TUM School of Life Sciences in person and find out what they are working on. A subsequent discussion after each lecture is expressly encouraged, because science thrives on the exchange of opinions.
The aim of the event is a lively encounter - citizens can get to know the people at "their" TUM better and learn more at the same time, while science receives valuable impulses for its research work through direct feedback from the public. The close cooperation between the city of Freising and the TUM Weihenstephan campus, which has existed for many years, is now becoming tangible in the city and region.
