Our lab investigates the cellular and molecular mechanisms of host-microbiota interactions in immune-mediated diseases. In particular, the group investigates mechanisms of immunological tolerance related to the gut, skin and other mucosal microbiota.

Last Tuesday our yearly team retreat took place at Mühlenhof. We spent some time learning about each other's earlier career steps, talking about future projects and we shared a nice meal together #LabRetreat #TeamBuilding #FeedYourMicrobiome
