3.3 Million Euros for Immune System Research
04/03/2025Biophysicist Anna Lippert is collaborating with colleagues from Oxford to study specialized immune cells. The team has now received the prestigious Wellcome Discovery Award.
An international team of scientists from Würzburg and Oxford has been awarded the renowned Wellcome Discovery Award, which comes with €3.3 million in funding. With this support, the researchers aim to investigate processes at the nanoscale that may provide crucial insights into how T-cells are precisely activated. T-cells play a key role in the immune system, and understanding how they function could open up new approaches for treating cancer and infections.
