On 12 February 2026, Hannover Medical School (MHH) – represented by Prof. Dr. Hortense Slevogt – plans to hold a press conference together with the team from the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) in Braunschweig.
The focus of the event will be the presentation and scientific classification of a groundbreaking cold plasma therapy for application in the lungs. For Viromed stakeholders, the findings are of high strategic relevance, as they address a medical field in which there is an urgent and, to date, insufficiently met clinical need worldwide: severe pulmonary infections – particularly in vulnerable patient groups and in intensive care settings.
The relevance of the topic is driven in particular by three key factors:
- High global disease burden: Pulmonary infections and associated complications affect millions of patients worldwide every year and represent one of the major challenges of modern acute and intensive care medicine.
- Growing therapeutic limitations: The increasing prevalence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens further exacerbates the situation and intensifies the pressure to develop new and effective therapeutic approaches.
- New physical treatment option: The planned publication of an innovative physical therapy principle for the lungs potentially represents a paradigm shift in infection treatment and opens up the prospect of scalable clinical application.
