Exciting topics, interestingly presented: Every Thursday, RESIST scientists or top-class researchers from external institutions present their topics at the RESIST seminar series.
Attend these exciting seminars of the Cluster of Excellence RESIST, as a member of RESIST or as a colleague or student.
On 18 June 2026 at 1:00 p.m., Prof. Dr. Josef Penninger, HZI, Research Group Innovative Organoid Research, will give a lecture with the title “ACE2 – from fly hearts to the heart of the pandemic”.
Organoids are miniature models of human organs cultivated from stem cells in laboratory settings. These delicate tissue structures mimic the three-dimensional architecture and function of real organs, offering researchers a unique opportunity to enhance their understanding of biological processes. Our aim is to advance the development of highly complex organoids incorporating immune cells and vessels. By doing so, we establish a platform, especially for investigating infections, conducting vaccine tests, and innovating therapeutic approaches.
The lecture will take place in Lecture Hall Q, Building J01 of the Hannover Medical School.
