The different projects conducted within the DTU study the immune-metabolic crosstalk through the lens of diverse human diseases and disease models. They use systems biomedicine approaches to uncover new pathogenic mechanisms and to unravel the complexity of the immune system. Their long-term objective is to facilitate the development of innovative diagnostic solutions and personalised treatment strategies for severe human immune-mediated diseases.<\/p><p>An interdisciplinary training environment<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p><p>NextImmune2 relies on the expertise of its host institutions to train future researchers at the interface between disciplines such as biology, computer science, mathematics and epidemiology. PhD candidates are embedded into multidisciplinary teams and get to learn a variety of scientific skills from quantitative data sampling and analysis of large datasets to computational modelling and experimental validation.<\/p><p>The programme allows the candidates to obtain a PhD degree in biology with a specialisation in either immunometabolism, systems immunology, fundamental immunology, chronic inflammation and autoimmunity, neuroimmunology, molecular and cellular allergology or epigenetics applied to immunology.<\/p><p>On a wider scale, the R&#038;D landscape in Luxembourg provides a dynamic and multicultural environment in the heart of Europe, with important financial and organisational resources.
