Prof. Bachmann's attendance at the 4th Edition of Innovations and State of the Art in Alzheimer's & Dementia (ISAD) in Barcelona underscores the importance of this event in the field of neurology, specifically dedicated to Dementias and Alzheimer's disease. ISAD serves as a crucial platform for experts to disseminate the latest research and advancements in these areas.
Notably, Prof. Bachmann has been a pioneer in innovative vaccine development for Alzheimer's disease, employing virus-like particles as a promising approach. His work in this area holds significant potential in the ongoing efforts to find effective treatments and preventive measures for Alzheimer's, a pressing concern in aging populations worldwide.

Kuhstallpille & Co - Der Allergiecode geknackt?

Katzen zählen zu den beliebtesten Haustieren in Deutschland. Doch rund jeder Zehnte hier hat eine Katzenallergie. Ein neuer Impfstoff fürs Tier soll die Bildung des allergieauslösenden Proteins verhindern. Schmusen ohne Reue?

Professor Martin F. Bachmann, study investigator from The University of Bern, Switzerland and The Jenner Institute, University of Oxford, UK, said: “The impact of peanut allergy on patients, their families and health systems is significant with prevalence on the rise. While work to develop peanut allergy immunotherapies has been the focus of researchers’ attention for some time, these potential immunotherapies often require repeated and long-lasting exposure transdermally or orally, which can limit patient adherence and have been associated with dangerous systemic allergic reactions. The availability of a safe and effective short-course vaccine that provides long-term protection and induces a long-lasting protective immune response remains the ultimate goal for researchers in this field. This study indicates a paradigm shift by addressing peanut allergy via a vaccination concept instead of classic desensitisation and provides a strong proof of concept for such a vaccine. The important next step will be to confirm the effects seen here in patient trials.”
