WHAT IS IMMERGE?

IMMERGE: STORMING IMMUNE MONOGENIC CONDITIONS THROUGH MULTIOMIC AND GENE EDITING APPROACHES

IMMERGE is a Doctoral Network funded by Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions of the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation Programme. 

IMMERGE is a unique educational program at PhD level that takes a multidisciplinary approach, designed to provide specialized training to 13 Doctoral Candidates (DC) in the area of immunology, with a focus on Inborn Errors of Immunity (IEI), which will be supervised by international experts in the field.

IMMERGE is a collaborative initiative that unites leading experts from 10 European and International public and private institutions in the fields of immunology, genetics, epigenetics, proteomics, single cell omics, bioinformatics, and gene correction.

IMMERGE investigates how IEI impact on immune cell functions, using single cell analysis, multiomics and computational tools to understand modified cellular pathways. Our goal is to understand, model and correct IEIs through genetic interventions and pre-clinical models.
