Fraunhofer CIMD Winter School 2026

We are pleased to announce this year’s Fraunhofer CIMD Winter School “Rethinking Immunity and Disease in the Face of Data Gaps”. As always, our four Ds—Drugs, Diagnostics, Data, and Devices - are at the core of the program. Whether you are joining us for the first time or returning, you can look forward to new topics, perspectives, and engaging discussions.

What makes it special

In addition to inspiring lectures, there will be plenty of opportunities for exchange, networking, and discussion. Participants are invited to present their own work in a poster session and learn from others.

Who should attend?

The Winter School is primarily aimed at PhD candidates, early-career researchers and medical professionals. However, students and all other interested individuals - whether young or young at heart—are equally welcome to apply.
