It was a bold idea that Georg Schett and Andreas Mackensen came up with almost a year and a half ago. Both are physicians at the University Hospital Erlangen; the first rheumatologist, the other specialist in blood cancer diseases. Schett told his colleague about a young patient who was suffering from a particularly severe form of an autoimmune disease known as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). In the case of the disease, the immune system turns against its own body for reasons that have not yet been understood and triggers chronic inflammation. Their severity ranges from mild to life-threatening.
The success of their work also causes a stir in the professional world.
