Biomaterial-associated infections remain one of the major challenges in modern bone and implant therapy. Increasing antibiotic resistance and a growing number of patients with orthopedic implants highlight the urgent need for new treatment strategies.

The Research Training Group (RTG) 2723 Materials - Microbes - Microenvironments (M-M-M) brings together materials science and medicine to develop innovative antimicrobial biomaterials that prevent infections while supporting tissue regeneration. By combining advanced materials design, microbiology, and state-of-the-art imaging technologies, the RTG aims to create the foundation for future implant materials with improved clinical performance.

Through interdisciplinary research and a comprehensive training program, RTG 2723 educates the next generation of scientists and clinicians in the emerging field of antimicrobial biomaterials.
