Climate protection and sustainability in hospitals - 09/11/2022 Sustainable activities in the healthcare sector The healthcare sector is not only facing major challenges in dealing with the consequences of climate change on human health, but it also needs to make a concrete contribution to reducing its own greenhouse gas emissions. Analyses show there are many opportunities to make medical care more sustainable, especially in hospitals’ daily routines. This is where the Heidelberg University Hospital and the viamedica foundation from Freiburg come in.https://www.gesundheitsindustrie-bw.de/en/article/news/sustainable-activities-healthcare-sector

Press release - 27/02/2025 EU Project: New Molecular Interventions against Virus Infections Targeted molecular interventions in the replication cycle and the immune recognition of viruses are intended to prevent viral entry into cells and virus replication. Scientists work on new approaches to combating highly dangerous viral diseases such as yellow fever or Lassa fever. The European Union is supporting the project over a period of five years to the tune of just under eight million euros.https://www.gesundheitsindustrie-bw.de/en/article/press-release/eu-project-new-molecular-interventions-against-virus-infections
Press release - 25/02/2025 Protein with contradictory properties: secret revealed A protein with contradictory properties: Despite its large negative surface charge, it has a strong tendency to take up electrons, which are also negatively charged. The researchers discovered positively charged calcium ions inside the protein very near the electrons, counteracting their charge. They see this as a natural way of handling opposing electrical charges and allowing the protein to optimally fulfill its biological function.https://www.gesundheitsindustrie-bw.de/en/article/press-release/protein-contradictory-properties-secret-revealed
Press release - 28/02/2025 Early Excellence in Science Award für Ivana Winkler The Bayer Foundation's Early Excellence in Science Award 2024 in the category of Data Science goes to Ivana Winkler of the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ). Winkler's work uncovered the unexpected effect of female reproductive capacity: the constantly recurring remodeling of the organs of the female reproductive tract during the sexual cycle leads to fibrosis and chronic inflammation over the years.https://www.gesundheitsindustrie-bw.de/en/article/press-release/early-excellence-science-award-fuer-ivana-winkler
Press release - 25/02/2025 Self-healing hearts How Zebrafish regenerate heart muscle cells Zebrafish can completely replace damaged heart muscle cells: The affected organ becomes fully functional again. Researchers at Ulm University have discovered that a specific cell-to-cell communication signal helps them to cope better with replication stress. This stress inhibits tissue regeneration in humans and mammals as they age. In Zebrafish a signalling protein ensures that the cells of the damaged organ continue to divide and thus multiply.https://www.gesundheitsindustrie-bw.de/en/article/press-release/self-healing-hearts-how-zebrafish-regenerate-heart-muscle-cells

New polymer for wound care - 09/01/2025 Thermoresponsive adhesive for pain-free removal of wound dressings Plasters or wound dressings can only perform their intended function if they adhere securely to the skin. However, they are often painful to remove, and in some cases, damage delicate newly formed tissue. Researchers at the University of Freiburg have developed an innovative polymer that adheres reliably at body temperature but can be easily and painlessly removed, leaving no residue, after being cooled.https://www.gesundheitsindustrie-bw.de/en/article/news/thermoresponsive-adhesive-pain-free-removal-wound-dressings
