PMI Impulse - the print magazine of the Cluster of Excellence PMI
The print magazine of the Cluster of Excellence PMI shows where and how the scientists in the Cluster are providing impetus in science and clinical practice, how they are advancing research and transferring it to clinical application. It presents the cluster's research and topics, each with a focus topic.
Issue 2: Immune cells - the inflammation makers
The cells of the adaptive immune system are among the key players in chronic inflammation. They are both the pacemakers and the executors of inflammation. The current issue of PMI Impulse is therefore dedicated to precisely these key players:
Issue 1: COVID 19 - challenge for research
The first PMI magazine provides an insight into the Cluster's diverse COVID research during the coronavirus pandemic. The spectrum ranges from findings from basic research on genetics and the role of the immune system, to studies on the spread of the virus and clinical studies on the long-term effects of COVID-19.
PMI in the podcast "Exzellent erklärt - Spitzenforschung für alle"
Inflammation research for listening
Episode #27 "Chronic inflammation - where does it come from, can we stop it?" of the DFG Cluster of Excellence podcast "Exzellent erklärt - Spitzenforschung für alle" focuses on research in the PMI cluster.
In the episode, PMI spokesperson Professor Stefan Schreiber talks to podcaster Larissa Vassilian about what we already know (and don't know) about chronic inflammatory diseases such as psoriasis, rheumatism and Crohn's disease, why research into them is so important and whether these modern diseases could be stopped in the near future. Professor Ben Krause-Kyora, archaeologist and biochemist, explains how he uses ancient DNA to research past epidemics, how they have shaped our genes and immune system and what this has to do with modern inflammatory diseases.

Interviews on precision medicine
Why is precision medicine important? What does it mean for your own work and how far has it already progressed in individual fields? And how will the future medicine look like with precision medicine implemented? International speakers and members of the Cluster give their assessments on this in an interview at the International Symposium 2018 of the Cluster of Excellence "Inflammation at Interfaces", the predecessor of "Precision Medicine in Chronic Inflammation".
