About the
Leibniz Institute
of Virology
The LIV research focuses on human pathogenic viruses with the aim of understanding virus-related diseases and creating new therapeutic approaches. Based on basic experimental research, new approaches are being developed for improved methods of treating e.g. AIDS, influenza and hepatitis, as well as emerging viral infections such as Dengue, West Nile fever or COVID-19. With its research focus, the LIV covers a wide range of the world's most important viral pathogens.
