Scientific engagement

Promotion of science and research

Biotest actively participates in the education of future scientists. For mandatory internships, bachelor, master and doctoral theses carried out in the company, there are co-operations with universities and colleges throughout Germany (including Frankfurt am Main, Darmstadt, Mainz, Giessen, Marburg, Bonn, Berlin, Würzburg and Tübingen) with a focus on universities in the Rhine-Main region. Students work on projects initiated by Biotest.

Company employees directly participate in scientific lectures, presenting practical case experience and sharing their expertise with future scientists in events either on location at the Biotest premises in Dreieich/Frankfurt or at lectures and seminars at the university.

Biotest also supports specific scientific activities for student education, such as the German scholarship programs of the Goethe-University in Frankfurt am Main, the Paul Ehrlich and Ludwig Darmstädter Prize and various other education and training programs for specialist staff.

Cooperation with patient organisations and physicians

Serious chronic diseases often result in severe psychological, social and financial burdens for patients and their families. In this context, the work of patient organisations, foundations and associations is essential. Biotest is involved in many ways to help those affected by serious chronic diseases beyond the provision of medical aid, and to raise society's awareness of the concerns and hardships of sick patients and their families.

For example, Biotest supports the Hemophilia Foundation in Germany with donations and organizational assistance in its daily work.

In the field of hemophilia, Biotest also supports the “European Association for Hemophilia and Allied Disorders” (EAHAD) and the "Pädiatrisches Forschungsnetzwerk gGmbH" as well as the German patient organization "Deutsche Hämophilie Gesellschaft" (DHG). These organisations have set themselves the goal of providing patients with better access to treatment and improved hemophilia care.

The same applies to the International Patient Organisation for Primary Immunodeficiency (IPOPI) and the German patient organization for congenital immunodeficiencies, DSAI e.V. These organizations are committed to improving the diagnosis of immunological diseases and patient access to treatment.

Furthermore, Biotest is a member of the DSG “Deutsche Sepsis-Gesellschaft” and the DGfI (German Society for Immunology).
