The Department of Hematology / Oncology of the University Hospital Frankfurt offers a broad diagnostic and therapeutic spectrum for patients with solid tumors and malignant diseases of the hematopoietic system. The research team lead by Dr. Julius Enssle is dedicated to investigate translational research questions with systems biology methods in B cell neoplasms. Hereby, one focus is to decipher antiviral immunophenotyes in patients with Multiple Myeloma, the clonal trajectories of immune cell populations and their functional relevance (funded by the Else-Kröner-Fresenius-Foundation).This research is taking place within successful collaborations with the experimental immunology research group of Prof. Evelyn Ullrich (University Hospital Frankfurt), the stem cell research group of Prof. Michael Rieger (University Hospital Frankfurt) and the computational immunology group of Prof. Katharina Imkeller (UCT Frankfurt).
The research team itself is embedded in the excellent research infrastructure of the university hospital in Frankfurt. B cell lymphoma research and systems biology applications are one of the main cornerstones of the Department of Hematology / Oncology, as well as of the Frankfurt Cancer Institute and the DKTK partner site Frankfurt. Moreover there are multiple possibilities for collaborations with scientists from the Georg-Speyer-Haus, the cardiopulmonary institute as well as Robert-Koch-Institute (Berlin).
