Trump attackiert Infektionsforschung: Folgen fรผr die globale Pandemieprรคvention
US-Prรคsident Trump kรผrzt massiv Fรถrdergelder fรผr die Wissenschaft in den USA. Das hat auch direkte Auswirkungen auf die virologische Forschung in Europa und Deutschland und kรถnnte die Pandemieforschung vor groรe Probleme stellen.

Scienceโs 2024 Breakthrough of the Year is lenacapavir, an injectable drug that demonstrated remarkable success at preventing HIV infection with one shot every 6 months. The drug attaches to the lattice-like capsid proteins that shield the virusโs genetic materialโa mechanism that could inspire other antivirals. Lenacapavir could help end the HIV/AIDS epidemic, but that will hinge on access for those who need it most.
