Center for Infectious Medicine
The research at the Center for Infectious Medicine, CIM, is focused around studies of the human immune system and infection-immunity in humans. The Center operates within the Department of Medicine, Karolinska Institutet at the Karolinska University Hospital in Huddinge. CIM has since its inauguration in 2002 rapidly grown and gained national and international recognition. The vision is to become one of the leading translational research centers within immunity and infectious diseases in Europe.
