Dear Sir or Madam,
What is required to transfer life science into healthcare innovations? Laboratory space, qualified employees, and money! None of these are easy to find. In our cluster HealthCapital Berlin-Brandenburg, the cluster management will help you to navigate the network and to find talent, laboratories, and financing. In this issue of our newsletter, we present solutions, initiatives, and success stories in the areas of real estate, skilled labor, and financing.
Get to know HYBRICK, a company which develops modern laboratory and production areas for the life science industry. And the story of Berlin-based radiopharmaceutical company Ariceum Therapeutics, which successfully completed a second round of financing in April with around €23 million, shows that the capital region is a good place to find partners and investors.
In our focus article “Education and training” we inform you about the various activities in Berlin and Brandenburg that are available for the qualification of skilled workers
We look forward to many upcoming networking opportunities. Visit the World Health Summit in Berlin (October 15-17) or meet us at BIO Europe (November 6-8) or Medica (November 13-16)!

TimeTeller reads your inner clock: Tenth spin-off of the BIH Digital Health Accelerator pinpoints the best time to exercise, sleep and take medicine
An interdisciplinary team led by Prof. Angela Relógio, a scientist at Charité’s Molecular Cancer Research Center (MKFZ) and Institute for Theoretical Biology and the MSH Medical School Hamburg, has developed a non-invasive method for profiling a person’s unique circadian rhythm. Starting with a simple saliva sample, the team of experts can create a detailed description of the body’s internal clock by combining molecular analysis and computational modeling. The goal is to provide personalized recommendations for adjusting lifestyle factors or treatment timing to the circadian rhythm. Read more |

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces (MPICI) have designed a carbohydrate sequence capable of folding into a stable secondary structure Researchers at the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces (MPICI) have designed a carbohydrate sequence capable of folding into a stable secondary structure. Until now, such self-folding biopolymers had only been developed for DNA and proteins, and sugars were previously considered too flexible to assume a stable conformation. Folded carbohydrates could open up completely new perspectives in biomedicine and materials science. |

Scientists of the DIfE have revealed expression patterns of key receptors in the mouse hypothalamus There is growing evidence that peptide hormones from the gut have far-reaching effects on the whole organism. By binding to corresponding receptors in the brain, they can modulate food intake and alter metabolic parameters. However, the role of these peptide receptors in critical developmental phases has not yet been thoroughly investigated. Scientists of the junior research group Neurocircuit Development and Function at DIfE have investigated this question and studied the expression patterns of key receptors in the mouse hypothalamus. Their newly obtained findings have been published in the journal PLOS One. |

Ten million euros for improved treatment of multiple sclerosis - Charité heads public-private partnership aimed at developing a diagnostic platform
Multiple sclerosis (MS) can take many different forms, which is why it is sometimes called “the disease of a thousand faces.” MS is also complex and difficult to treat. Now, an international consortium headed by Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin aims to change that. The partners plan to develop an AI-supported online platform that can predict the course of MS on an individual basis to make it easier to identify the best treatment for specific patients. The project, titled “Clinical impact through AI-assisted MS care” (CLAIMS), will be receiving nearly 10 million euros in funding for four years as part of the EU’s Innovative Health Initiative.
