暫譯: 微生物組：我們的內部生態系統如何控制免疫系統並預防發炎

Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Richard Lucius, born in 1951 in Geesthacht/Elbe, Germany. Studies of biology at the Universities of Hohenheim and Heidelberg with a diploma thesis and dissertation on the biology of a livestock parasite in West Africa. Following the dissertation work as a postdoc at Harvard University and as a university assistant and lecturer at the Tropical Institute of the University of Heidelberg. Habilitation (third thesis) in theoretical medicine, before taking up a professorship in parasitology at the University of Hohenheim in 1990. Since 1995 Professor and director of the Chair of Molecular Parasitology at the Institute of Biology at Humboldt- Universität zu Berlin. Scientific interests: communication between parasites and their hosts at the level of the immune system; evasion and subversion of the host immune system by parasites. Allergy and inflammatory diseases. Microbiome research.

理查德·盧修斯教授，生於1951年，德國Geesthacht/Elbe。於霍恩海姆大學和海德堡大學學習生物學，並以西非一種家畜寄生蟲的生物學為主題撰寫畢業論文和博士論文。博士論文完成後，於哈佛大學擔任博士後研究員，並在海德堡大學熱帶研究所擔任大學助理和講師。隨後在理論醫學領域進行了第二次論文的資格考試（Habilitation），並於1990年在霍恩海姆大學獲得寄生蟲學教授職位。自1995年以來，擔任柏林洪堡大學生物學研究所分子寄生蟲學講座的教授和主任。科學興趣包括：寄生蟲與其宿主之間在免疫系統層面的交流；寄生蟲如何逃避和顛覆宿主的免疫系統；過敏和炎症性疾病；微生物組研究。
