The skin forms the outer barrier of the body. As the largest organ, the skin harbors its own defense mechanisms and immune cells. Due to the constant contact with pathogens and environmental hazards, skin diseases are among the most common diseases.
To meet the standard of high quality patient care we continuously study the causes of diseases and new therapy options. Since the appointment of Prof. Kamran Ghoreschi as Director of the Department of Dermatology, Venereology and Allergology in 2018, our research group - AG Molecular Immunology Charité (MIC) – is part of the Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin.
