HZI magazine "InFact"

For many years, InFact has been the magazine of the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research and since 2017 it has been publicly available on the HZI homepage for everyone who is interested. In reports, interviews and portraits, we provide information about research projects, the research strategy and also about the people at the various HZI locations. Have fun reading the InFact!
