Research4Global Health 🌍🏳️🌈 Germany's largest institution in the field of tropical diseases & emerging infections
Info
The Bernhard Nocht Institute for Tropical Medicine is Germany’s largest institution for research, services and training in the field of tropical diseases and emerging infections. Research topics include clinical studies, epidemiology and disease control as well as the biology of the respective pathogens, their reservoirs and vectors. The present scientific focus is on malaria, haemorrhagic fevers, tuberculosis and tissue nematodes. To study highly pathogenic organisms such as Lassa and Ebola viruses, the institute is equipped with laboratories of the highest biosafety level (BSL-4). Infected mosquitoes can be studied under BSL-3 conditions. Outstanding scientific achievements in the recent past include the identification of the SARS coronavirus and the discovery of a previously unknown developmental stage of malaria parasites in humans. Services of the institute include specific laboratory diagnostics of tropical diseases, emerging and other rare infections, but also a close co-operation with the German army as well as consultation of the scientific community, industry, politics and the public, which greatly contribute to the national standing of the institute. The institute comprises the German National Reference Centre for all tropical pathogens, reference laboratory for SARS and WHO "Collaborating Centre for Arbovirus and Haemorrhagic Fever Reference and Research". In co-operation with the Ghanaian Ministry of Health and Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in Kumasi, the institute since 1998 runs the Kumasi Centre for Collaborative Research (KCCR), a modern research and training centre in Ghana, which is also open to external research groups. As a research institute of national importance, the institute is a member of the Leibniz Association and jointly funded by the Federal Government, the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg and the other Federal States.

The 9th #GIBACHT cohort of 16 fellows from 15 different countries in Africa, Eastern Europe, Middle East, Central and South Asia have started their 1-year training programme in biosecurity & biosafety with a workshop in Berlin. During this first workshop the fellows have begun to develop their own context-specific table top exercises, learn from and exchange with GIBACHT alumni and other experts on topics such as the Biological Weapons Convention, Dual Use, International Health Regulations, Epidemiology, Personal Protection Equipment (PPE), engage in outbreak simulation exercises, and more. GIBACHT has already trained 122 health professionals, which now work as “multipliers” in 34 countries. The fellowship programme is an Auswärtiges Amt (Federal Foreign Office) Germany funded collaborative initiative of the Bernhard Nocht Institute for Tropical Medicine in partnership with the African Field Epidemiology Network (AFENET), Robert Koch Institute (RKI), and Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute (TPH). 👉 go4bsb.de/gibacht
