Brief description:
The first operational period of this Centre of Excellence resulted in significant achievements and laid the groundwork for new research and objectives: (1) increasing capacity to conduct cutting-edge research in viral immunology and the development of vaccines and immunotherapeutics; (2) strengthening collaboration with scientific institutions in the EU through joint project proposals and research; and (3) enhancing the translational potential of our discoveries through cooperation with industry. The main target groups of the project include researchers in the academic and scientific community, the healthcare system, the biotechnology industry, and the general public. The research planned for the next project period will deliver new scientific discoveries and ensure their application for the benefit of science, medicine, and society as a whole.
