Two researchers from the University of Bonn have been awarded a Proof of Concept Grant by the European Research Council (ERC) as part of a program designed to help researchers translate their ideas from previous ERC projects into commercial applications. Biologist Bernardo S. Franklin from the University Hospital Bonn and physicist Simon Stellmer will thus each receive ¤150,000 over a period of around one year. Bernardo S. Franklin from the Institute for Innate Immunity and the ImmunoSensation2 Cluster of Excellence studies hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), which develop into different blood cells through processes of cell division and differentiation. "Bouts of inflammation that a person experiences as they get older will damage these stem cells," Bernardo S. Franklin says.
