How can patient‑derived insights deepen our understanding of human biology and ultimately guide target discovery? Join our upcoming live online seminar to explore how opnMe has helped advance research in Crohn’s Disease and Systemic Sclerosis through collaborative academic partnerships.
Over the past years, opnMe has launched multiple calls for collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim’s Immunology and Respiratory discovery research department. In this seminar, you will hear how two winning proposals have led to innovative translational models that capture key disease mechanisms. Boehringer’s Jochen Schmitz will open the session with an overview of how opnMe supports immunology translational research and fosters productive academic-industry collaboration.
Next, Gianluca Matteoli of Leuven University will present his team’s findings on the interplay between stromal and myeloid cells that drives fibrosis in Crohn’s Disease, an emerging area with significant therapeutic potential1. This will be followed by Yulia Kiyan, of Hannover Medical School, who will introduce an innovative microfluidic microvascular niche on a chip and demonstrate how it is being used to model vascular damage in Systemic Sclerosis under physiologically relevant conditions.
Join us for this interactive seminar to connect with the scientists driving these discoveries, explore the power of open science, and find inspiration for your own research.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
