Pharmaceutical research for novel anti-infectives
The Helmholtz Institute for Pharmaceutical Research Saarland (HIPS) focuses on the development of novel anti-infectives by combining state-of-the-art medicinal chemistry and natural product based research with innovative drug delivery approaches.
Research at HIPS
Research at HIPS is based on the following four research areas: Microbial Natural Products, Drug Design and Optimization, Biological Barriers and Delivery, and Drug Bioinformatics. Close collaboration between these research areas allows us to streamline the development of novel anti-infectives.

"Development of novel antibiotics is currently only possible in close collaboration with various academic and industrial partners. We aim to bridge the translational gap caused by market failure in numerous collaborations and public private partnerships to enable anti-infective development in the fight against antimicrobial resistance."
Rolf Müller, Managing Director of the Helmholtz Institute for Pharmaceutical Research Saarland (HIPS) and Head of the Department Microbial Natural Products
