Our research
To tackle many of the problems that several infectious diseases impose, we need a better understanding of the human immune system and immune reactions towards pathogens in humans.
Clinical Infectious Diseases
The research at this sub-unit is focused around studies on how the interplay between humans and micro-organisms results in disease and how this can be treated and prevented.
Technological platforms
The Center has invested a significant amount of economic resources to amass cutting edge technology and scientific expertise.
