Frankfurt am Main, Hessen, Deutschland Fraunhofer-Institut für Translationale Medizin und Pharmakologie ITMP Vollzeit
Position Overview

The Fraunhofer Institute for Translational Medicine and Pharmacology ITMP is a prominent entity in applied research, with a network of 74 institutes and research units across Germany. Our organization is dedicated to pioneering advancements in medical science, supported by an annual research budget of 3.4 billion euros.

Research Focus

Our institute specializes in the exploration and development of cutting-edge methodologies aimed at the early identification, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases linked to compromised immune system functionality.

Collaboration and Application

We pride ourselves on being a robust collaborator with university medical centers, ensuring the effective translation of research discoveries into practical applications. Additionally, we partner with the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors to implement the latest scientific insights into tangible projects.

Project Description

One of our key initiatives is centered on advancing therapeutic strategies for Huntington's disease, a severe neurodegenerative condition that disrupts the glymphatic and lymphatic systems, which are essential for the elimination of cerebral waste products.

The primary manifestations of this disorder include motor impairments, cognitive deterioration, and various neurological complications. Currently, there is a lack of known interventions to postpone the onset of Huntington's disease, as well as insufficient digital resources to assess the lymphatic system.

Our Mission

Our objective is to gather extensive imaging data from these critical systems to develop a machine learning algorithm, ultimately creating a versatile tool for preclinical therapeutic assessment.
