SPEAKER HIGHLIGHTS
During the 51st Annual Meeting of the SSI, Gerhard Krönke will give a lecture entitled “Resetting autoimmunity in immune-mediated inflammatory disease”.
Gerhard Krönke is the chair and director of the Medical Department of Rheumatology and Clinical immunology at the Charité University Hospital Berlin. His research work focuses on the molecular mechanisms contributing to the development of immune mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus. A particular focus of his research lies on the identification of novel therapeutic targets and treatment approaches, which resulted in the identification of a novel molecular mode of action of glucocorticoids as well as the introduction of novel therapeutic strategies such as CAR T cells and T cell engagers as newly emerging therapeutic principles for IMIDs. He received multiple awards as well as an ERC Starting grant and an ERC consolidator grant.

Velkommen til Immunologiens dag!

«Når immunsystemet mister bremsene!».

Onsdag 29/4 kl.17:30-19:00
i Gamle Festsal, Domus Academica, Universitet i Oslo sentrum.

Høsten 2025 ble Nobelprisen i fysiologi og medisin tildelt oppdagelsen av celler som passer på at immunsystemet ikke går berserk i kroppen vår! I den anledning er temaet for denne populærvitenskapelige dagen autoimmune sykdommer, og hvordan balanse i immunsystemet og sykdom henger sammen!

Program:
Anette Susanne Bøe Wolff (Professor i Immunologi, Universitetet i Bergen):
«Venn, fiende eller forvirret? Immunforsvarets balanse i helse og sykdom»
Guro Goll (Seniorforsker og overlege i revmatologi, Diakonhjemmet sykehus):
«Jeg har autoimmun sykdom – kan jeg ta vaksine?»
Karsten Midtvedt (overlege, spesialist i nyresykdommer, Oslo Univ.sykehus):
«Organtransplantert og immunsupprimert; full fart… med bremsene på!»

Velkommen!
