Overview

About the Programme

An important scientific focus of the Immunobiology - from molecules to integrative systems program at University of Bonn is to explore the regulation of the immune system in health and disease, and to decipher signalling processes in the lipid metabolism and in bio-membranes.

Research on the immune system is the key to understand the molecular basis of many diseases. These obviously include bacterial and viral infections, but we now know that the immune system controls and influences the course of other common diseases, e. g. cancer, Alzheimers’, as well as cardiovascular and metabolic syndromes.

Modern Immunology aims at understanding the functions of our key defense mechanisms against pathogens at the level of molecules or even atoms- but furthermore it is a real systems science: an immune reaction and its consequences can only be understood in the context of intact organs in a living organism, yet we need high-end in vitro approaches including imaging and biochemistry to fully understand the underlying pathways at the molecular level.

The choice of topics in the new Master’s program "Immunobiology: from molecules to integrative systems" offers an attractive package for educating you into a modern, complete immunologist and systems scientist, ready for tackling the challenges of the future.
