New Family Room at the BMZ

We are very happy to announce the opening of our family room at the BMZ. The opening ceremony was attended by Mrs. Kolits, a representative of the family service PME and Mrs Banavas from the office of gender equality of the UKB. The more than 40 guests had the opportunity to ask questions, exchange their experiences and have a look in our family room.

For our Cluster scientists, the family room can be used to provide childcare by the family service of PME when the regular daycare is closed due to unforeseen reasons. If you organize your own childcare- you can use it after booking the room at notes

If you have questions concerning the pme family service or the family room, please contact alexandra.kraemer@uni-bonn.de.

Study reveals dynamic interactions between brain tumors and immune cells

Glioblastoma, the most common and aggressive brain tumor in adults, is difficult to treat because this cancer can invade the surrounding brain tissue and spread far beyond the original tumor mass. Researchers from the DZNE, the University Hospital Bonn (UKB), and ImmunoSensation³ at the University of Bonn have observed this infiltration process in the living brain using high-tech microscopy. Their study is based on research in mice with a form of brain tumor that closely resembles human glioblastoma.

New Findings on Immunotherapy for a Rare Brain Infection

Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a rare but very serious brain disease. It is caused by the reactivation of the widespread JC virus when the immune system is severely weakened. There is currently no targeted antiviral therapy available, which is why new treatment approaches are urgently needed. In recent years, so-called immune checkpoint inhibitors have been increasingly used; these “unlock” the immune system and reactivate the body’s own immune cells. The results were recently published in the journal JAMA Neurology.
