Immunology is the specialty focused on the immune system’s role in health and disease, encompassing the body’s defense mechanisms against foreign invaders, as well as its regulation of what is recognized as self. Clinical immunologists manage immune-related disorders such as allergies, autoimmune diseases, immunodeficiencies, and complications like transplant rejection. Immunotherapy, a treatment approach in this field, is widely used to address conditions like autoimmune disorders, certain cancers, and immunosuppressive states.

Research Division of Immunology, Transplantation, and Infectious Diseases of Ospedale San Raffaele focuses on advancing knowledge of immune system development and function in both health and disease. Their research delves into host-pathogen interactions and the mechanisms that contribute to antimicrobial resistance. With a comprehensive approach, the division aims to develop innovative diagnostic and therapeutic strategies tailored to precision medicine.
