Immune Response and Interventions

The projects within the topic “Immune Response and Interventions“ concentrate on the reactions of the immune system during an infection. Scientists develop new models that are adapted to the human immune system and investigate the mechanisms of an immune response. Furthermore, they explore the immune system’s ageing and develop adjuvants that increase the effectiveness of vaccines.
