SFB 1403 "Cell Death in Immunity, Inflammation and Disease"
SFB 1403 Overview
Research within SFB1403 aims to understand the mechanisms of regulation and the functional role of diverse forms of regulated cell death in animals and plants, with particular focus on how different types of cell death regulate immunity, host-microbe interactions, inflammation and disease.

Congrats to new CCCE Junior Group Leader Melanie Fritsch
After obtaining her PhD from the University of Cologne in genetics, Melanie started a PostDoc in Cologne, focusing on the regulation of programmed cell death by the protease Caspase-8. Her CCCE junior research group will investigate the alteration of cell death machinery, which has traditionally been viewed as a central feature of malignant transformation and therapy resistance in cancer patients.
