Thomas Vogl: Simon Bernatz Demonstrates that The Thymus Plays a Crucial Role in Health, Immune Resilience, and Longevity
Thomas Vogl, Director of the Department of Radiology, Interventional Oncology, and Nuclear Medicine at Frankfurt University Hospital, shared on LinkedIn:
”The Thymus – The Underrated Organ for Health and Immunotherapy.
In collaboration with leading medical centers, including Harvard University, and continuing at Goethe University Frankfurt, my colleague Dr. Simon Bernatz was able to demonstrate that the thymus plays a crucial role in health, immune resilience, and longevity even in adulthood.
AI analyses (including CT data) of over 30,000 people yield astonishing results: Thymus health varies greatly and directly influences disease risk, treatment success, and life expectancy.
This long ‘forgotten organ’ could be the driving force behind our immune defense.
Congratulations, Dr. Bernatz, on this international success!”
