Researchers from the HZI and CSSB discuss the latest technologies in infection research.

News

On 29 November 2024, a matchmaking workshop between scientists of the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) and the Centre for Structural Systems Biology (CSSB) in Hamburg was held at the HZI campus in Braunschweig, bringing together about 50 researchers from Braunschweig, Hannover, Würzburg and Hamburg. CSSB was established in Hamburg as a joint initiative of ten northern German research partners, including the HZI, and is an interdisciplinary center where biologists, chemists, physicians, physicists and engineers explore the interaction of pathogens with their hosts. The event featured flash talks by early-career researchers and PIs, as well as poster pitches and in-depth presentations of the core facilities at HZI in Braunschweig and CSSB in Hamburg.

Veterinarian Dr. Fee Zimmermann collects long-term data on human, animal and environmental health in the African tropics and on her doorstep - in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. She heads a research group at the Helmholtz Institute for One Health (HIOH) in Greifswald. In this interview, she talks about the importance of the tropics for future disease outbreaks and about animal helpers in data collection.

Every year, the company Clarivate Analytics publishes a list of "Highly Cited Researchers" and honors scientists who have made a particularly significant impact on their fields. In 2024, researchers from the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) are once again among them: This time, bioinformatician Prof. Andreas Keller, Scientific Director of the HZI and geneticist Prof. Josef Penninger and biotechnologist Prof. Marc Stadler were honored for their scientific publications.

Antibacterial drugs are important to treat infections. But increasing bacterial resistance to current drugs — making them ineffective or only partially effective — means that new ones are urgently needed. Building on previous work, researchers from the Helmholtz Institute for Pharmaceutical Research Saarland (HIPS), together with an international team of collaborators, have demonstrated a potential antibacterial treatment from a biosynthetic derivative of darobactin, a bacterial natural product. The team reports proof-of-concept animal trials on infections caused by bacteria, including Escherichia coli and Acinetobacter baumannii that are known to develop drug-resistance. This ACS Infectious Diseases study was published during the World Health Organization’s World Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Awareness Week from 18 to 24 November 2024. The HIPS is a site of the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) in cooperation with Saarland University.
