On January 28, 2026 Prof. Anna Köttgen will give a lecture as part of the Late Lunch Seminars on the topic "Genetic Studies of Non-traditional Markers Reveal New Insights into Kidney Function".
Her talk will explore how genetic investigations in large population studies, using image data and detailed molecular characterization of biofluids, enable the construction of non-traditional readouts of kidney function and disease, and permit the identification of genes related to previously unrecognized functions of the kidney. Examples will be used to illustrate how these findings can be translated into experimental studies of underlying mechanisms, advancing our knowledge of (patho-)physiology.
The Late Lunch Seminars, the Medical Faculty’s scientific lecture series, aim to promote networking across a wide range of research topics. The talks include presentations from local scientists and external project partners as well as inaugural lectures by newly appointed professors. The lectures are primarily aimed at the scientific staff of University Medicine, the University and non-university research institutions in Greifswald.
The talk is open to the university public and will be held in English. Registration is not required.
