Interview

About 70 million people worldwide are chronically infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV). Possible consequences include hepatitis, cirrhosis and liver cancer, but the disease often remains undetected for long periods of time. Thomas Pietschmann of the TWINCORE in Hannover investigates the virus and works on the development of a vaccine that could prevent HCV infections in the future.

Story

Among all the hospital germs, Gram-negative bacteria are particularly difficult to treat: Many antibiotics fail due to the double-cell membrane. But cystobactamides are providing hope for a remedy – substances from the extensive collection of bacteria held by the HZI. These bacteria are going to be further developed into drugs in a partnership with the pharmaceutical company Evotec.
