ImmunoSensation leaves X

Due to recent developments, we decided to discontinue our activities on the social media plattform X. With this decision, we follow more than 60 german universities and other research institutions. As a Cluster of Excellence, we see the communication of research and scientific results as well as their discussion as one of our tasks, which is why we did not make this decision lightly. However, X's line is not compatible with the basic values that we represent and also want to live in our communication. These include transparency, constructive discourse and, above all, scientific integrity.

We are looking forward to welcome you on our channels at

—People who want to do something for their health these days often turn to Instagram, TikTok, and other social media platforms for information. But what’s really behind the posts and trends shared by health influencers? On May 13, the Cluster of Excellence ImmunoSensation3 at the University of Bonn invited the public to join five professors for dinner to explore this question. In a relaxed atmosphere, social media posts on health and the immune system were presented, discussed by the approximately 40 participants, and analyzed together with the experts.
