About the School

The OX-BER School on Molecular Basis of Inflammatory Diseases was recently established in the framework of a collaboration between the Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology (KIR), Nuffield Department of Orthopaedics, Rheumatology and Musculoskeletal Sciences (NDORMS) and the Rheumatology Departments at Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin and the Deutsches Rheuma-Forschungszentrum Berlin (DRFZ), a Leibniz Institute.

The aim of this school is to bring together graduate students and clinician scientists from across the globe, with faculty of the Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, and DRFZ in a structured programme providing advanced training in the molecular mechanisms and pathogenesis of chronic inflammatory disease.
