Studying (epi)genomics, (single cell) transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics and functional heterogeneity of different MC subpopulations present in selected homeostatic or inflamed tissues, in particular in tumors (tumor-associated macrophages, myeloid-derived suppressor cells and dendritic cells), the liver (Kupffer cells), and the brain (microglia subsets and barrier-associated macrophages).

At the Laboratory of Experimental Hematology (LEH) headed by prof Zwi Berneman, we investigate novel concepts in personalized (stem) cell- and gene-based (immuno)therapies for personalized medicine. We perform fundamental, preclinical, translational and clinical research favoring a bench-to-bedside practice. For its translational and clinical research, LEH collaborates very closely with the Center for Cell Therapy & Regenerative Medicine ...
