The DZIF flagship project PANTIPA has reached an important milestone. Following successful preclinical work at the University Hospital Cologne and the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research, the
Enterococcus faecium is intrinsically resistant to many antibiotics and can cause difficult-to-treat infections, especially in immunocompromised and other vulnerable patients. Vancomycin-resistant E. faecium (VRE) strains are especially problematic because vancomycin cannot be used to treat these ...
The previous R-Net projects (R-Net 1.0 and 2.0) provided important insights into the prevalence of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) through cross-sectional studies. However, the longitudinal development of colonization and the factors influencing its acquisition, persistence, and transmission ...
The Clinical and Ambulant Study Center (CLASTER) supports the planning and implementation of clinical and epidemiological studies within the DZIF research area "Community-Acquired Infections at Mucosal Interfaces". Its mission is to accelerate the translation of discoveries from basic research into ...
Following infection, the Ebola virus can survive unnoticed in the human body for months or even years, hiding in areas with little immune surveillance like the central nervous system. The danger is
