For many generations violent conflicts have characterized people´s lives in Middle East. Psychological trauma is passed on from generation to generation - often violently. Therefore, targeted trauma therapy is essential; having the same cultural background or understanding the patient´s culture is an important advantage. The Jeside psychotherapist Prof. Dr. Jan Ilhan Kizilhan - together with Iraqi and German colleagues - has compiled the theoretical and practical knowledge for trauma treatment and focused it on the specific conditions in the Middle East. The textbook is available in two different editions: one in English, the other in Persian (Farsi).

"Many transplant clinicians have experienced that allografts from elderly donors (predominantly deceased donors rather than living donors) elicit a stronger immune response in the early period after organtransplantation associated with reduced allograft function. These observations may not only be due to the increased oxidizing conditions of old donor age, but also may be influenced by a decline of the antioxidative defense system during aging," Prof. Dr. Walter Land reports in his textbook ´Innate Alloimmunity, Part 2: Innate Immunity and Allograft Rejection´.

Innate immunity provides much more than an initial host defense against microbial infection, Professor Dr. Walter Land emphasises in his textbook ´Innate Alloimmunity - Part 1: Innate Immunity and Host defense´.

A dominant theme in addiction studies is how addicted individuals become stigmatised, excluded and marginalised as a result of their drug addiction - and the often dysfunctional and anti-social behaviour that follows. Max Dennehy and Thaddeus Müller report (in: Stigma and drug use: Research perspectives from Europe),"often, the experiences of exclusion and stigmatisation start well before the ´addicts´ have ever picked up a drug. Our research conveys the reality that many of our most excluded, marginalised, and stigmatised people who use drugs have a chronic history of stigmatisation and exclusion that dates back to early childhood. Often, addiction is a symptom of exclusion, not the cause."
