SFB 1530 Seminar Series
It is a great pleasure to announce this collaboration between the CRCs 1218 and 1530 on the Life Science Campus - #MITOChats: towards Therapeutic Targeting in Lymphoma - with our guest speaker Luca Scorrano.
Luca Scorrano is among the leading experts in the field of mitochondrial dynamics and its role in cell biology, disease and medicine. He addresses the central question of form-function relationship at the molecular level. His work on cristae remodeling paved the way for the new field of mitochondrial dynamics. In the following years, his lab discovered that Opa1 works as a molecular staple holding cristae junctions tight, deficient in dominant optic atrophy, targeted during apoptosis and essential in vivo to control tissue damage and to correct mitochondrial diseases.

Afterwards: Lymphoma Tech Meeting - DLBCL Mouse Models
Are you an aspiring lymphoma researcher and interested in gaining practical knowledge? Join the Lymphoma Tech Meeting held by Dr. Gero Knittel, postdoc in the Lymphoma Lab, on murine DLBCL modelling. Update: the seminar will now take place at 3:30 pm and online!
The seminar will discuss the following aspects:
- Pros and cons of different model types
- Mouse model genetics
- Mouse models of DLBCL
- Colony management/breeding strategies
- Regulatory aspects
