The FAU Profile Center Immunomedicine (FAU I-MED) originates from the Medical Immunology Campus Erlangen (MICE), which was founded as an FAU interdisciplinary center in 2009. Its overarching objective is the coordination of immunological and infectious disease research at FAU. The profile center aims to enable and strengthen interdisciplinary scientific work on complex, challenging and innovative topics within the entire field of immunology. FAU I-MED belongs to the FAU research focus “Medicine, Life Sciences and Health”, but also has strong connections to other research priorities such as “Medical Engineering” or “Optics and Optical technologies”.
