The aim of this project is to validate and improve an in vitro test system developed in a previous project for the prediction of hepatotoxicity induced by chemical substances and drugs. For this purpose, the test system will be supplemented with immunological cells in order to be able to detect idiosyncratic reactions. In the subproject of the working group of Prof. Daniel Seehofer and Dr. Georg Damm, primary liver cells will be provided and the in vitro model will be improved by Kupffer cells.

Aim of the project group "Management of health information systems" is to contribute to a better health care by developing new methods and tools to support the information management.

The project is also known as: MIG - Management von Informationssystemen im Gesundheitswesen

This project serves as a container for all COVID-19 related assets, developed at the University of Leipzig and its partners.

CAPSyS is an interdisciplinary research network that investigates the causes and course of severe pneumonia. The network works in five subprojects at seven locations throughout Germany. CAPSyS is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) with 3.8 million euros.

The Leipzig Health Atlas (LHA) is an alliance of medical ontologists, medical systems biologists and clinical trials groups to design and implement a multi-functional and quality-assured atlas. It provides models, data and metadata on specific use cases from medical research fields in which our team has scientific and clinical expertise.

During 2003 and 2011 the german cancer aid funded the molecular mechanisms in malignant lymphomas (MMML) project. It is based on strongly interacting networks of reference pathologists, lymphoma scientists, bioinformaticians and clinical trial groups. Within the project about 1000 lymphoma samples and controls were characterized by gene expression and copy number arrays. The datasets were supplemented by extensive histopathological and clinical descriptions of the lymphoma cases. The aim of the ...

The German Consortium for Hereditary Non-Polyposis Colorectal Cancer has been founded in 1999 by the German Cancer Aid and has been funded by the German Cancer Aid until recently. GC-HNPCC currently comprises 6 university centers providing genetic counseling, histopathological and molecular tissue analysis, genetic testing, and specific structured surveillance programs for early cancer detection at each clinical unit, all based on defined standard operating procedures.

The central objective of HaematoOpt project is to demonstrate that recently developed dynamic mathematical models of normal and leukemic hematopoiesis can be used to practically impact clinical decision- making
