Heidelberg researchers focus on developing drugs against flavi- and coronaviruses

New drugs are intended to help stop viral zoonoses - infections that jump from animals to humans. To study suitable inhibitors, Prof. Dr Christian Klein from the Institute of Pharmacy and Molecular Biotechnology of Heidelberg University is receiving funding in the amount of 450,000 euros from the Volkswagen Foundation.

Researchers recommend urgent adaptation plans to mitigate heat-related deaths and illnesses

Extreme heat is an increasingly common occurrence worldwide, with heat-related deaths and illnesses also expected to rise.

Researchers identify key protein that plays an essential role in male fertility

Mammalian sperm cannot fertilize an egg from the get-go. It's an ability acquired only after insemination, during passage through the female reproductive tract, and requires two consecutive, time-sensitive processes to provide sperm with the physical and biochemical traits necessary to complete their fundamental job.

Researchers develop novel sealant patch for preventing intestinal leakage

A burst appendix or a life-threatening intestinal volvulus are emergencies that need to be treated by surgeons immediately. However, a life-saving operation, in which tissue from the digestive tract has to be reattached, bears some risks. After all, everything that is transported through the gastrointestinal tract to the outside world in fact belongs there - and should under no circumstances end up inside the abdominal cavity.
