TRR84 Innate Immunity of the Lung

Mechanisms of Pathogen Attack and Host Defense in Pneumonia

Since 2010, the TRR 84, aims to decipher lung-specific mechanisms and cellular interactions during infections and inflammations in order to develop new therapeutic concepts for the treatment of pneumonia. The TRR84 has established a scientific network that includes medical and basic science university partners, several basic research institutes, the Robert Koch Institute and two Max Planck Institutes.
