to the German version2nd funding period for the SFB 704

The continuation of SFB 704 (Local Immune Regulation: Spokesperson: Prof. W. Kolanus) has recently been granted by the DFG. In the second funding period (2010-2013) this SFB will comprise 18 interdisciplinary scientific projects from the faculties of Mathematics/Natural Sciences and Medicine, an integrated graduate school and  four service projects. The financial volume of the entire grant amounts to more than 11 Mio €.  

Welcome to the SFB 704

The Collaborative Research Center 704 is a programme research initiative of the University of Bonn which has been funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) from January 2006 on. The key objective is to decipher important pathways of local or organ-dependent immune regulation, with particular emphasis on the mechanisms of migration, signalling, cellular activation and the generation of functional repertoires.

The SFB 704 is organized in a highly interdisciplinary fashion. It encompasses research efforts in Biology, Chemistry, Bio- and Chemoinformatics, and Medicine. Furthermore, most of the principle investigators of this programme participate in the study path of excellence Molecular Biomedicine.
