Functions of immune cells are linked to metabolic profiles, which are affected by changes in the tissue microenvironment. Focusing on bone regeneration after injury, we aim to understand how the microenvironment affects the metabolism of myeloid cells in the bone marrow over time. We developed a lens implant for longitudinal intravital imaging of the mouse femur, to enable metabolic profiling of myeloid cells. Our studies demonstrate a high degree of spatiotemporal metabolic flexibility of myeloid cells in vivo over the course of regeneration.
Anja Hauser holds the Professorship for Immune Dynamics at Charité – Universitätsmedizin and heads Program Area “Cell and Tissue Immunology” at Deutsches Rheuma-Forschungszentrum Berlin. She investigates how the immune system is organized in a spatial and temporal manner, developing and applying advanced imaging technologies.
Moderation: Professorin Dr. Anca Dorhoi

Organizational information
The Alfried Krupp Wissenschaftskolleg is offering this event live as a zoom meeting in which viewers can participate in writing via chat.
- We would be pleased if you provided your clear name when dialing into Zoom. Of course, you can also take part in the event under a pseudonym.
- A list of all participants can be viewed by all those involved throughout the event.
- During the lecture, the microphones of the spectators are all automatically muted so that no disturbing background noise is generated. You are welcome to turn on the camera of the spectators during the lecture.
- During the entire event, requests to speak or questions can be asked in writing in the chat.
Recording of the digital lecture
The digital lecture will be recorded for use in the college's media library. Only the speaker, his/her presentation and the moderator will be heard or seen in the recording. Video, audio or chat contributions are not recorded. A "REC" sign at the edge of the picture informs the participants.
