Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse

The control of tissue regeneration from endogenous cells as well as application of stem cells in regenerative medicine requires a detailed knowledge of the molecular mechanisms that regulate differentiation of pluripotent cells into specific cell types and govern their organization into tissues and organs. In the Research Training Group 1104 (GRK 1104), basic scientists from the Faculty of Biology of the University of Freiburg and the Max Planck Institute of Immunobiology and Epigenetics have joined forces with biomedical scientists from the preclinical and clinical departments of Freiburg University Hospital to establish a research program addressing questions related to patterning, cell specification, cell commitment, cell differentiation and the regulation of morphogenesis in a wide spectrum of organs. Using different model organisms including mouse, zebrafish, chick, Xenopus, C. elegans and Drosophila, a broad spectrum of methods including genetic, biochemical, molecular, cell biology and large scale „omics“ approaches was applied. The results of this research program have significantly improved our mechanistic insight into the development of several organs and tissues including the urogenital system, neuronal tissues, lymphoid follicles and innate lymphocyte populations and interactions of the latter with the intestinal system. In addition important regulatory principles were elucidated. Research in Drosophila, for example, revealed a mechanism how the formation of signaling gradients is coupled to the interpretation of such gradient to equip organ formation with robustness and scaling properties. To optimally prepare Ph.D. student for a career in research a qualification program was established that offered students a broad interdisciplinary training in up to date methods and concepts of modern biomedical research with a focus on developmental biology, cell differentiation and organogenesis. The qualification program combined seminars, lectures and retreats with practical training modules. All students participated in a weekly seminar that served as a central platform of the program for the presentation and discussion of the progress of the Ph.D. projects and for exchanging experience with experimental approaches, experimental protocols and reagents. The students also participate in a guest speaker seminar series and in the program retreats. The rest of the study program was flexible and tailored to the individual training needs. Each student was supervised by a “Thesis Advisory Committee” consisting of the direct thesis supervisor and two other group leaders who attend the student’s progress reports and provided advice on future directions and decisions.
