Projects

The group is interested in omic-level studies including the genome, methylome, transcriptome, and metabolome of the general population as well as of various diseases including cardiovascular diseases, pneumonia, sepsis, obesity, and brain cancers. Additionally, we aim at transfering results of biomathematical model simulations into clinical practice e.g. by haematopoietic growth-factor opimization during cytotoxic chemotherapy and optimization of EPO applications in chronic kidney disease.

The aim of the project is to use methods and processes of the Medical Informatics Initiative (MII) to contribute to the detection of health risks in patients with polypharmacy. Polypharmacy occurs especially in elderly patients with multimorbidity. Polypharmacy associated with an increased risk for medication errors and drug-drug or drug-disease interactions, which either reduce or intensify the desired effect of individual active substances or lead to undesired adverse drug effects (ADE). In the ...

Project for testing requests and functions of LHA

The study employed high quality non-mydriatic (i.e. pupil dilation is not required) fundus photography (FP) (Oculus Nidek AFC-230, 45 FOV) and a infra-red reflectance (IR) en face image obtained by scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO) (Heidelberg Spectralis, 30 FOV) to produce representative images of the retina and optic nerve. In order to prove the scale invariance property of tortuosity metrics, ophthalmological photographs from 18 subjects, both eyes, were randomly extracted from the ...
