Our Research Network

The HSII training and education program is supported by a range of collaborative research programs in the areas of infection, immunity, and inflammation. Presently, there are a number of UKE-based research consortia receiving major grants from the German Research Council (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, DFG), which are the backbone of the graduate school, and which provide the specific research focus for the participating scientists. These grants ensure that sufficient funds are available to provide a rich training environment in which graduate students and young scientists can thrive. The following DFG-funded collaborative research centers (SFB), research groups (FOR) and clinical research groups (KFO) as well as integrated training programs iPRIME and iSTAR are currently running at the UKE.
