Memorial book and research project: The Munich "euthanasia" victims | Between 2011 and 2017, the working group Psychiatry and Welfare under National Socialism in Munich, together with the Munich Documentation Center for the History of National Socialism and the district of Upper Bavaria, compiled a memorial book for the Munich victims of National Socialist patient murders, which was published by Wallstein Verlag in June 2018. The book honors the victims by mentioning their names and dates of life. After a long period of silence, the memory of the murdered people becomes part of the collective memory of the city of Munich. Life stories tell of the lives and deaths of the victims. The historical context and the aftermath of the National Socialist 'euthanasia' murders in Munich and Upper Bavaria are described in detail. |

GESIOP - Health management from an inter-organizational perspective | The joint project GESIOP ('Health management from an inter-organizational perspective') is embedded in the 'Future of Work' programme promoted by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, which in 2014 replaced the research programme 'Working - Learning - Developing skills. Innovative ability in a modern working world'. Like its predecessor projects, 'Future of Work', and as part of it GESIOP, is dedicated to topics such as work design and organization through changing working conditions (flexibility, digitalization, etc.), but also the balance of interests between employers and employees. TUM sub-project: Development of concepts and strategies for the integration of occupational health management and corporate social responsibility (CSR) The tool developed in the project is available free of charge at: http://gesiop-gesundearbeit.de/gesiop-tool/ |

TherVacB - A therapeutic vaccine against hepatitis B | The human immune system appears to have the ability to clear acute HBV infection in approximately 90 % of infected adults. An effective virus-specific B and T cell response is considered a key factor in viral control and eventual resolution of HBV infection. Unfortunately, B and T cell responses are barely detectable and functionally impaired in chronic HBV infection. The mission of TherVacB is to overcome HBV-specific immune tolerance and restore antiviral B-cell and T-cell responses through therapeutic vaccination to finally cure HBV. |
