NFDI4Microbiota is set to become part of Germany’s national research data infrastructure (NFDI). In May 2021, a panel of experts recommended that the consortium should receive NFDI funding – and now the Joint Science Conference (GWK) has given its approval. The German Research Foundation (DFG) will fund the National Research Data Infrastructure for Microbiota Research – to give the consortium its full title – for an initial period of five years. NFDI4Microbiota’s mission is to support the microbiology research community in Germany by providing access to data, data analysis tools, and data and metadata standards, as well as a comprehensive range of training programmes.

The Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) has appointed PD Dr Fabian Leendertz as founding director of the Helmholtz Institute for One Health (HIOH) in Greifswald on 26 May 2021. At the same time, he accepted his appointment to a W3 professorship for One Health at the University of Greifswald and is expected to become a university professor on 1 August 2021. As another site of the HZI, the HIOH will in future cooperate closely with the University of Greifswald, Greifswald University Hospital and the Friedrich Loeffler Institute. One Health involves interdisciplinary research at the interface of human health, animal health and the environment.

How can we apply the knowledge we have gained so far to better overcome the current crisis and prevent another pandemic in future? Helmholtz aims to find answers to these questions with two new, interdisciplinary collaborative projects. In addition to the holistic approach, the focus is also on quickly implementing the results into practice.

Am I infected with SARS-CoV-2? Is it one of the dangerous variants? Being able to answer these and more questions with a single efficient diagnostic test can be decisive for gauging the spread of disease and selecting the right therapy. In a study published today in the journal "Science", researchers from Würzburg at the Helmholtz Institute for RNA-based Infection Research (HIRI), a site of the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) in cooperation with the Julius Maximilians University (JMU), tackle this challenge with a new CRISPR discovery they translated into a diagnostic platform called LEOPARD.

After exposure to a virus through infection or vaccination, the body activates a number of cells and mechanisms that can provide targeted defense against the pathogen. For the global containment of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, the question of how long this protection lasts is an important factor. Prof Carlos Guzmán, vaccine researcher at the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) in Braunschweig, Germany, summarizes what is known about long-term immunity to SARS-CoV-2 and what difference it makes whether immunity is acquired through vaccination or infection.
