ZIK plasmatis

Launched in 2009, the Center for Innovation Competence (ZIK) “plasmatis – Plasma plus Cell” represents a unique combination of expertise from biochemists, pharmacists, biologists, and physicists within the new field of plasma medicine. With the help of extensive funding in the form of its own research building and extensive laboratory and equipment facilities, ZIK plasmatis has developed into an international leader in research into the use of plasma for wound healing and cancer therapy. Of the four junior research groups originally funded, the established research group “Plasma Redox Effects” continues to conduct application-oriented basic research within the framework of third-party funded projects in the research building even after the BMBF funding (2009-2022) has ended, and represents ZIK plasmatis as an affiliation in scientific publications.
