About

The research programme Infection and Immunity offered at the Utrecht University has proven itself over the last decades.

Overview

It connects immunologists, infectious disease physicians, paediatricians, bacteriologists, virologists, chemists and cell biologist to study and fight elements in infectious diseases and immunological disorders. 

Features 

  • The Infection and Immunity programme from Utrecht University aims to develop novel treatments and fight resistance against existing drugs.
