WeichhartLab

This work was possible thru rigorous support by the #christiandopplergesellschaft and our own SFB "Immunometabolism" #SFB F83

We are excited to see our beloved study on Macrophage Arginine metabolism in Neuroinflammation published today in #NatureImmunology. nature.com/articles/s4159…. It is time to celebrate 🍷🍻🥂

Great opportunity for a #PhD on how lipid metabolism regulates immune cell function in diseases such as cancer and autoimmunity. Train in immunology, bioIT, & metabolism. Apply in parallel in two sites: 1. UNLIMITED: unimedizin-mainz.de/unlimited-msca… 2. Local partner site that you choose.

The @ImmunoMetEurope is looking for PhD students in an @horizonEU funded consortium: UNderstanding Lipid ImmunoMetabolIsm To trEat Disease. Apply here: unimedizin-mainz.de/unlimited-msca…

Thanks @WeichhartLab @preprintclub for having a look at and summarizing our recent preprint!

Proud to have Connor as part of the @weichhart_lab

@Alexis_Lomakin Very well deserved!!!

Tenured 🥳! A major milestone for my team (lomakinlab.org) & me in today’s challenging global landscape. Grateful for the support of colleagues, peers, friends, and family!

Drs. @JC_Alves_Filho, Luciana Berod, and Thomas Weichhart (@WeichhartLab) are presenting their work on the metabolic regulation of immune responses at #IUIS2025! Check out the session at 1:45 pm in Hall E1.

@SanchoLab @Nature @CNIC_CARDIO Congrats David!!!

💥 A gut microbe metabolite that drives #atherosclerosis? Yes—Imidazole propionate (ImP) triggers vascular inflammation without changing cholesterol. 🧪 We show the pathway—and how to block it. nature.com/articles/s4158… #OpenAccess at @Nature @CNIC_CARDIO #microbiome #CVD

Paul Ettel, MD-PhD student in the lab has been awarded a prestigious Early Career Fellowship Grant from @StopSarcoidosis. FSR will support Paul’s research on the role of neutrophils and arginine metabolism in granuloma formation in sarcoidosis. Congratulations!

Big news in #Sarcoidosis research! FSR awards $450K to support 3 early-career investigators advancing breakthroughs in imaging, cardiac care, and metabolism. Congrats to Dr. Lippitt, Mr. Quijano-Campos & Dr. Ettel! Learn more:loom.ly/Cz4PXsQ #FSRFellowship #RareDisease

We are grateful to the Austrian Science Fund @FWF_at for receicing a new standalone grant to study metabolic signaling in sarcoidosis!
