Overview
35 years of the Regine Hengge Lab
We are delighted that you will be joining us in Berlin for the “Microbial Stress Responses Symposium – 35 years of the Regine Hengge Lab” on April 29-30th 2024 at the Tieranatomisches Theater at the Humboldt Universität, Berlin.
The symposium is to celebrate scientific contributions of Regine and her lab over the past 35 years on the field of Microbial Stress Responses: from stationary phase & general stress response to second messengers, biofilms and the interface of science and art. Talks will feature Hengge lab members, but also collaborators and colleagues, who will present some personal and historic perspective of their research, and importantly, vignettes of their latest exciting findings.
