Established in 1999, the Birmingham MRC Centre for Immune Regulation provides a coherent focus for immunology research supported by state of the art technologies.  The Centre reflects the international profile of both basic and clinical immunology within the University of Birmingham College of Medical and Dental Sciences.

The global aim of the research focused in the Centre is to gain a better understanding of immune factors in autoimmunity, immune mediated inflammatory disease and selected bacterial and virus mediated diseases through insights into the microenvironmental control of immune responses.

• Autoimmunity
• Immune Mediated Inflammatory disease
• Selected Bacterial and Virus Mediated diseases.

The Centre incorporates researchers from  the Schools of Immunity and Infection, Cancer Sciences and Clinical & Experimental Medicine.
