  Chirality transfer between fermions and gauge fields plays a crucial role for
understanding the dynamics of anomalous transport phenomena such as the Chiral
Magnetic Effect. In this proceeding we present a first principles study of
these processes based on classical-statistical real-time lattice simulations of
strongly coupled QED $(e^2N_f=64)$. Our simulations demonstrate that a
chirality imbalance in the fermion sector triggers chiral plasma instabilities
in the gauge field sector, which ultimately lead to the generation of long
range helical magnetic fields via a self-similar turbulent cascade of the
magnetic helicity.
