🙂 A warm invitation to the next Lady Mary Montagu Lecture Series with Prof. Dr. Stefanie Scheu. Registration: https://dgfi.org/gleichstellung/lady-mary/

The lectures are held online and they are free of charge. You are cordially invited to attend.


Prof. Dr. Stefanie Scheu

Tracing type I Interferons between defense and dysregulation: Cellular

events and molecular control circuits

Chair: Prof. Dr. Luciana Berod

24.6.2026, 4 - 5.30 pm, via zoom

 

Stefanie Scheu is Professor of Immunology and Director of the Institute of Immunology at Rostock University Medical Center. She studied Biology at the Technical University of Munich and carried out postdoctoral research at the University of California, San Francisco. She subsequently established her independent research career as an Emmy Noether group leader. Her research centers on infection immunology, with a focus on dendritic cells and type I interferon responses. Her group investigates how specialized immune cell subsets shape protective immunity and immune pathology during infection and autoinflammation.

 

In this series of lectures, the DGfI Commission on Gender Equality and Career Development provides a forum for excellent female immunologists. They will share their exciting research, but also talk about their experiences in forming a career as women in STEM (=MINT).

In this series of lectures, the DGfI Commission on Gender Equality and Career Development provides a forum for excellent female immunologists. They will share their exciting research, but also talk about their experiences in forming a career as women in STEM (=MINT).


Chair: Prof. Dr. Stella Autentieth


About the Speaker:

Prof. Dr. Sarina Ravens is Professor of Systems Human Immunology at MHH. She leads a junior research group at the Institute of Immunology and is a member of the Cluster of Excellence RESIST - Resolving Infection Susceptibility. Her research centers on the development and functions of γδ T cells in infectious diseases, with a particular emphasis on early life events. Her group aims to define immune mechanisms and identify immune markers that predict susceptibility to infection across early life. She is a role model for women in immunology, highlighted by the 2024 EFIS Ita-Askonas Prize.
