Dr. Hermann Haller is the President of the MDI Biological Laboratory (MDIBL), located in Salisbury Cove, Maine. Born and raised in Germany, Hermann trained there as a nephrologist (kidney specialist), before completing post-doctoral work at the Yale School of Medicine in New Haven, Connecticut. In addition to being a practicing physician, medical school professor and researcher in German institutions for more than two decades, Hermann continued his work in the United States through the MDIBL (formerly known as the Mount Desert Island Biological Laboratory). Hermann became the leader of the MDIBL in 2018. The goal of the MDIBL is to:  “Improve human health by discovering novel mechanisms of tissue repair, aging and regeneration, [and]...translate our discoveries for the benefit of medicine and society.” Hermann’s own research focuses on using zebrafish embryos to study kidney development, vascularization, and blood vessel growth, with the goal of eventually transplanting newly made kidneys into humans. Join our conversation with Dr. Hermann Haller today on Radio Maine.
