      Der Weg zum BioNTech-Impfstoff - und zu einer Medizin von morgen

      4,3(46)Ohodnotit

      Uğur Şahin und Özlem Türeci, Wissenschaftler und Mitgründer von BioNTech, haben den weltweit ersten zugelassenen Covid-19-Impfstoff entwickelt – und damit Medizingeschichte geschrieben. Der Financial Times-Journalist Joe Miller hat die beiden seit März 2020 begleitet und erzählt ihre Geschichte von den ersten Stunden des Kampfes gegen Covid-19 bis zur Zulassung des Impfstoffs. Miller beschreibt, wie Şahin und Türeci mit einem kleinen internationalen Team von Spezialisten in kürzester Zeit 20 Impfstoff-Kandidaten hergestellt haben, wie sie große Pharmaunternehmen überzeugt haben, ihre Arbeit zu unterstützen, wie sie Verhandlungen mit der EU und der US-Regierung führten und wie sie es mit BioNTech als kleinem Mainzer Unternehmen schafften, mehr als zwei Milliarden Impfdosen zu produzieren. Neben Şahin und Türeci hat Miller mit über 50 Wissenschaftlern, Politikern und Mitarbeitern von BioNTech über diese einmalige und unvergessliche Zeit gesprochen: über ihre Erfahrungen, ihre Herausforderungen und den Triumph.   Das Buch zeigt, wie die beiden Wissenschaftler auf 30 Jahre Forschung an der neuartigen mRNA-Technologie aufbauen konnten, um einen Ausweg aus der Corona-Pandemie zu finden. Und es teilt die Vision der Mediziner, mit der mRNA-Technologie Therapien gegen viele andere Krankheiten wie Krebs, HIV oder Tuberkulose zu finden. Eine beeindruckende Geschichte zweier außergewöhnlicher Menschen.
