The Division of Rheumatology will be hosting the 17th annual James Lane Lecture Series & Reception on March 16th. This year's speaker will be Dr. Martin Herrmann, Professor of Experimental Medicine from Universitätsklinikum Erlangen.

Dr. Herrmann studied Biology at Erlangen University and later completed his PhD and MD at the Universitäts-klinikum Erlangen. He has been a member of the research staff since 1987, and was appointed as a professor in 2004. Dr. Herrmann’s research focuses on Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and the role of retroviruses in that disease.
