Today, around 70 students from years 5 to 9 visited the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) in Braunschweig to get an idea of what it is like to work in a modern research facility. They got a taste of the world of science and its administration in ten scientific and two administrative departments.

The antimicrobial potential of CRISPR-Cas systems is promising, yet how to best design or implement CRISPR nucleases remains poorly understood. An international team led by the Helmholtz Institute for RNA-based Infection Research (HIRI) in Würzburg has now addressed this knowledge gap. The researchers conducted the first systematic interrogation of CRISPR antimicrobials using multidrug-resistant and hypervirulent bacteria as case studies, revealing wide variations in efficacy that could be predicted via high-throughput screening and machine learning. Their findings were published today in the journal Nucleic Acids Research.
