The Medical Scientist Programme InFlame supports talented postdocs from natural science disciplines who are conducting research in the interdisciplinary field of the dynamics of inflammatory reactions by providing structured research and career training opportunities. The aim is to involve the participants in translational research, to support their career paths in academia and to strengthen the link between basic research and patient-oriented research.

Currently, there are eleven postdocs from biology, chemistry and computer science working on four-year research projects within our programme. We plan to open it to more fellows – interested junior researchers and their mentors are welcome to get in touch with us.

The programme receives funding from the Else Kröner-Fresenius Foundation and is financially supported by the Faculty of Medicine and the University of Münster.
