iPRIME
innovative Promotionsförderung im Bereich translationale Entzündungsforschung
Understanding inflammatory processes in autoimmune diseases and infections is crucial for the development of new therapeutic approaches and thus for the prospects of curing patients. A new, enthusiastic and well-trained generation of medical scientists can contribute significantly to understand the inflammatory pathways in the context of diseases. With iPRIME-EKFS, an innovative doctoral funding program in the field of translational inflammation research was established.
Interdisciplinary projects in the fields of organ-specific and organ-spanning immune responses in the kidney, liver, CNS, intestine, and fetomaternal medicine are processed with the latest techniques. The students work full time in the laboratory for one year and are supervised by a competent team of scientists during this time and are optimally trained by an innovative structured training concept.
