“We need an Institute for Pandemic Research in Hamburg!”

Academy President Prof. Dr. Edwin J. Kreuzer and the Spokesman of our Working Group on Infection Research, Prof. Dr. Ansgar Lohse, appeal for an interdisciplinary Institute for Pandemic Research in Hamburg. In a guest column in the newspaper “Hamburger Abendblatt” they sketch out what they see as necessary for research. Read the column (in German)
