Titel: “Neutrophil Plasticity: From Tissue Homeostasis in Early Pregnancy to Tumor Progression”
Date: October 21, 2026, 5 p.m.
Location: University of Technology Graz (Stremayrgasse 16, HS BTM)
Abstract:
Although traditionally viewed as uniform first responders, neutrophil granulocytes exhibit functional plasticity that critically governs both tissue development and pathological progression. By comparing how neutrophils protect early pregnancy to how they support tumor growth, this work reveals how the same cellular processes lead to opposite outcomes.
