Dr Harald Labischinski tribute

We are very sorry to hear that Harald Labischinski, Faculty Member for Pharmacology @ Faculty of 1000, former CEO of MerLion Pharmaceuticals and member of the ICAAC Program Committee, has sadly died. Dr Labischinski was a great asset to anti-infective research throughout his distinguished career and was strongly involved in the development of a number of significant anti-infective programs. Beyond his retirement, he continued to follow his passion for drug research and provided invaluable help and support to several companies in drug discovery and development, as well as being a committed and passionate teacher at the Free University of Berlin. His contribution to the field will be greatly missed.
