I recently joined the Hörgang / Springer Medizin podcast to discuss how AI and cell therapies may help us one day “reset” the immune system in autoimmune disease.

Warum KI den Weg zu passgenauen Rheuma-Therapien ebnet
Rheumatologie mit Turbo - Michael Bonelli über die Medizin von morgen: Der Professor für experimentelle Rheumatologie treibt an der MedUni Wien ein Ziel voran, das so ambitioniert wie dringend ist: Autoimmunerkrankungen besser verstehen und behandeln. Als Leiter der Clinical and Translational Science Unit will er die Brücke schlagen zwischen Labor und Klinik – und damit den klassischen „Trial-and-Error“-Ansatz in der Rheumatologie ablösen.

Congrats to Sylvia Knapp and team on their new Science Immunology paper! They show how aged bone marrow drives lung fibrosis by sustaining profibrotic macrophages. Reduced T-reg IL-10 worsens healing, revealing key immune-aging links.

Do you want to understand the mechanisms of methotrexate in patients with rheumatoid arthritis?
Check out our latest pre-print, first-authored by Teresa Preglej and Anela Tosevska - www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Time-resolved immune dynamics in rheumatoid arthritis under methotrexate therapy
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by immune dysregulation, including alterations in peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) populations and aberrant cytokine signaling. Methotrexate (MTX) is...

Exciting collaborations in action!
We’re part of two Horizon Europe projects: DARK MATTER and SQUEEZE. Within SFB-F70, we study HDACs as targets in autoimmune diseases.
We also collaborate with LBI for Arthritis and Rehabilitation, RTCure, and the PhD Program SHIELD.
Stay tuned for updates!
