Würzburger Helmholtz-Institut für RNA-basierte Infektionsforschung

Research organisation

Würzburger Helmholtz-Institut für RNA-basierte Infektionsforschung

Description

Rising antimicrobial resistance, chronic infections, and (re-) emerging pathogens are among the major challenges facing humanity. RNA is increasingly understood to contribute to key regulatory and sensory processes in the cell, but the role of RNA in infection biology remains understudied.


Research at HIRI—in the city of Würzburg, Germany—aims to close this gap by combining interdisciplinary expertise with cutting-edge research infrastructure to exploit the vast potential of RNA as a diagnostic molecule, target, and drug to combat infectious disease.
