In front of an international audience, IDMKD researcher Bastian Reiter presented the software tool FREDA. It enables the automated cleaning and curation of real-world health data and was developed as part of data research projects within the German Cancer Consortium (DKTK). A distinctive feature of the tool is its universal applicability: in principle, it can be used with any hierarchical-relational data model. A scientific publication on the project is forthcoming, but FREDA is already being used in ongoing research projects.

For the first time in the winter semester 2026/2027, the Institute is offering the elective module ‘Zombie-Apokalypse, Lockdown und das Netzwerk Universitätsmedizin’ to medical students in the clinical phase of their studies. In this interactive seminar, a fictional but biologically plausible pandemic scenario is devised, and the progression from an outbreak to potential innovations in patient care is discussed.

Just under 15 months after recruitment started in May 2025, more than 3,000 patients have already been included in the base cohort of the Study Network Infectious Diseases (SNID). Inclusions are distributed across the modules Respiratory Infections (1,065), Gastrointestinal Infections (829), Bloodstream Infections (748), CNS Infections (337) and Emerging Infections (38). For every included case, a standardised baseline dataset and biosamples are available. This milestone shows that the infrastructure works, is ready for use and can be activated quickly when new research questions or pathogens emerge. We would like to thank all study teams and all participating patients for their contribution!
