Together with our partners, we seek to accelerate the transfer of our research, so that laboratory ideas can reach society and improve people's quality of life at the fastest rate possible.

This is what drives us. Why not join us and make a difference?

Deng's lab at the Institute of Virology takes an integrated approach to studying the interactions between virome, microbiome, and the human host.

In contrast to the classical approaches commonly used in phage research, we are using single-cell technologies, multi-omics methods, culture-independent techniques, and machine learning to study phages and their interaction with the bacterial and human host for developing novel therapeutics.

Ultimately, we are aiming to develop personalized phage-based treatments against infections by multi-resistant bacteria and for manipulating the human microbiome in dysbiosis-associated diseases.

Prof. Matthias Tschöp (Dr. Med., Dr. hc.) CEO of Helmholtz MunichWe believe that excellent research requires a range of different perspectives. Diverse teams reach better solutions and are more innovative in their research topics.
