The center of his research focus is the development of suitable combination therapies for type 1 diabetes and the development of preventive vaccines, with the goal to ultimately pave the path for a primary prevention of T1D.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.
