Medicine 3 is dedicated to improving patients' quality of life and curing chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases through a holistic approach, cutting-edge diagnostics, and a commitment to research, teaching, and training. The Department of Stem Cell Biology focuses on modeling nervous system diseases using patient-specific stem cell models. By studying disease-specific changes through advanced biochemical, neurophysiological, and imaging techniques, the department aims to uncover mechanisms behind conditions such as ALS, HSP, Parkinson's disease, and the gut-brain axis, paving the way for innovative therapeutic approaches.
