Bockenstedt Laboratory

Bockenstedt Laboratory is a research facility focused on studying the immune system, particularly how it affects heart and blood vessel health. They investigate conditions like endocarditis, an infection of the heart's inner lining, by examining how bacteria and immune responses interact. The lab’s work aims to understand disease mechanisms and develop better treatments for cardiovascular infections. Their research combines microbiology, immunology, and cardiovascular science to improve patient care and outcomes.
