Introducing CAI

Research for a future without allergies

The Cluster Allergy and Immunity CAI integrates institutes with congruent research activities aiming at allergy prevention and remission. CAI partners include the Helmholtz Center Munich, the TUM, LMU, UNIKA-T Augsburg and the University Hospital Regensburg that practice research in a tightly integrated way and share a translational and interdisciplinary spirit that fosters creativity and innovation.​ Insights from the interplay of environment and men as well as cellular mechanisms are deliberately directed into preclinical models and - if proven effective - into clinical practice.
