Rolf Becker Prize for ISD Researchers Dominik Paquet and Angelika Dannert

Dominik Paquet and Angelika Dannert, have received this year’s prestigious Rolf Becker Prize. Their award-winning publications focus on a three-dimensional model of the human blood-brain barrier developed entirely from induced pluripotent stem cells, and on a human stem cell model for studying tauopathies.

The Faculty of Medicine and the foundation Rufzeichen Gesundheit! in Baierbrunn award the Rolf Becker Prize for the best original work from the previous or current year in the field of experimental or clinical medicine as a result of a research project conducted at the Faculty of Medicine.
