A delegation from the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) visited the InfectoGnostics Research Campus Jena and the LPI on Thursday.
BMBF State Secretary Prof. Sabine Döring and Thuringian Economics Minister Wolfgang Tiefensee visited the Leibniz Centre for Photonics in Infection Research on 7 November 2023.
With the founding of LPI gGmbH on 25.04.2024, the Leibniz Centre for Photonics in Infection Research is entering the next era. The four consortium partners of the new centre - the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology (Leibniz IPHT), the Leibniz Institute for Natural Product Research and Infection Biology - Hans Knöll Institute (Leibniz HKI), the Friedrich Schiller University Jena (FSU) and the University Hospital Jena (UKJ) - have thus taken the decisive step to consolidate the LPI as a globally unique translational infrastructure - as a bridge from research to application. LPI gGmbH will be established as an open-user one-stop agency. It combines all services, technologies and competences under one roof that are required to significantly accelerate the development and transfer of market-ready light-based diagnostic procedures and novel therapeutic approaches for the treatment of infectious diseases.
