Organisation
Laboratory of Intensive Care Medicine
Division
The overall research objective of the Laboratory of Intensive Care Medicine is to unravel key pathways underlying critical illness-induced organ failure, thereby identifying potential therapeutic targets to enhance recovery. We focus on endocrine and metabolic underlying mechanisms of organ-specific problems evoked by critical illness.
