We are a leading institute in the field of biomedical research and development. Our institute develops new methods for the early detection, diagnosis and treatment of diseases caused by problems in the immune system. We conduct research in three areas: Discovery of new drugs, preclinical research (tests before application in humans) and clinical research (tests in humans).

The 4D concept (Drugs, Devices, Diagnostics, Data) enables us to develop new diagnostic and therapeutic options for immune-mediated and neurodegenerative diseases. We work closely with local universities and clinics at five locations in Germany. The ITMP supports both university medicine and the pharmaceutical industry in translating research findings into practice.
