Dr. Ingmar Hoerr, Chairman of the Supervisory Board for CureVac AG in Tübingen, will be speaking in the seminar series “Academia meets Industry - A Political-Scientific Discussion” about “RNA, 3D Printing and Mass Data: Not a vision but reality.” His company is regarded as a market leader in the research and development of mRNA-based active ingredients. mRNA are copies of DNA genes that serve as instructions for the construction of proteins. Dr. Helmut Laaff from TPL Pathology Labs, Freiburg, will lead the subsequent panel discussion. The aim of the series is to bring the University into interdisciplinary dialogue with high-ranking guest speakers from industry and public health organizations and to facilitate a dialogue on the opportunities and risks of current and future developments in the life sciences.
