2nd Long COVID Symposium of the German Centers for Health Research (DZG)

The event brings together leading experts of the eight German Centers for Health Research to discuss the latest findings on Long COVID. This interdisciplinary symposium will focus on advancing research and improving care for those affected by the condition while fostering collaboration across scientific disciplines.

Long COVID is a complex challenge that affects multiple organ systems and requires an interdisciplinary research approach. The German Centers for Health Research (DZG) bring together expertise in a broad spectrum of diseases - including cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, as well as neurological, metabolic, infectious, oncological, pediatric, and mental health conditions.

For those affected by Long COVID, research is not just about understanding the disease but about finding solutions to improve their lives. This includes people suffering from myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), a debilitating post-infectious disease that is in urgent need of more research and better clinical care.

Many patients are still waiting for effective treatments and improved care. That is why this symposium brings together leading researchers and clinicians from all DZG centers to present their latest findings, discuss challenges and explore innovative solutions. By fostering collaboration across disciplines, we aim to accelerate progress and translate research into real benefits for patients.

We invite you to explore the program, share ideas with your peers, and engage in discussions that will drive the future of Long COVID research.
