For the second time, the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin presents the new format "Kaffeeklatsch mit Wissenschaft" in the Experimental Field of Participation and Open Science.
Get ready to get exciting insights into the work of our scientists and drink coffee in a cosy atmosphere. Everyone is welcome to ask questions and contribute to the discussion.
In our September issue, Anna Taranko will present her work in the Department of Immunology. As a research assistant at the Charité and the German Rheumatism Research Centre Berlin, she is researching the autoimmune disease Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, also known as butterfly rash.
Her work focuses on the cells of the innate defence system and their relevance for the course of the disease in the kidney. With the help of a 60,000x magnification of the laser scanning microscope, the immune cells can be made visible and photographed.
At the "Kaffeeklatsch" Anna would like to give us an insight into the basics of immunology and autoimmune diseases as well as into the work of a scientist.
