 In this episode of "InFact", host Julia Demann talks to Dr. Dr. Theresa Graalmann about why our immune system sometimes chooses the wrong enemy: Its own body. They also discuss how research at the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) is giving new hope to people with autoimmune diseases. Theresa Graalmann talks about how rheumatism, lupus, and vascular inflammation develop. She also talks about which organs are most affected and the role that infections, diet, and addictive substances like nicotine play in causing or worsening these conditions. Most importantly, it shows how closely medical doctors and scientists work together at the HZI and its partner institute TWINCORE. The development of new treatments is based on patient data and cutting-edge cell analyses. This means that laboratory findings reach the patient's bedside more quickly.
