Institute of Innate Immunity · University of Bonn

How the innate immune system keeps us healthy, and when it drives disease.

The Institute of Innate Immunity at the University of Bonn brings together research teams on the Venusberg Campus working on inflammation, immune signalling and new therapies for inflammatory and infectious diseases.
