Gut Flora & Stroke: How Microorganisms Influence Our Immune System
Which factors can activate immune cells after a stroke? This question was investigated by researchers at University Hospital Essen and ISAS. Their work focused on the gut microbiota.

3 Questions for Dr Ali Ata Tuz
In his doctorate, Dr Ali Ata Tuz researched the causes of immunodeficiency after strokes and was already working closely with ISAS at the time. Following this, he subsequently devoted himself to the behaviour of immune cells in the bioimaging research group at ISAS. In this interview, the physician talks about his path from the clinic to application-oriented basic research.

Heart Failure Rarely Occurs on Its Own: ISAS Researchers Develop New Treatment Pillars
The symptoms, subsequent problems and therapeutic challenges of patients with heart failure are increasingly challenging for general practitioners and cardiologists. Doctors are limited in their choice of treatment options, especially for patients with additional diseases. At ISAS, researchers are therefore focussing on broadening the therapeutic spectrum.

New Ionisation Method: From Open Questions to Closed Plasma
Mass spectrometry only works with electrically charged, i.e. ionised, particles. Researchers often use plasma for this purpose. In a series of publications, scientists from the Miniaturisation Research Group have shed new light on this ionisation method and presented a completely new type of plasma. This does not require a continuous gas flow and is therefore particularly resource-efficient.

“We essentially ask ourselves the same questions”
In the ISAS cooperation project “The Secret World of the Immune System”, ISAS researchers and artists from the storyLab kiU at Dortmund University of Applied Sciences and Arts brought microscope data to life in an immersive space. Lennart Oberscheidt, research associate and visual effects (VFX) supervisor at storyLab kiU, talks about the special features of the project and the similarities between art and research in an interview.
