Exploring new avenues to develop tomorrow’s medical knowledge through an approach that integrates basic and clinical research
Our research units are led by principal investigators who collaborate in a spirit of collegiality and with the vision of bridging the gap between research and patients. They train the next generation of scientists and are independent and creative minds who work tirelessly to improve health.
The Primary Immunodeficiency Clinic is housed at the Research Centre on Rare and Genetic Diseases in Adults at the Montreal Clinical Research Institute (IRCM). The clinic assesses and treats patients with compromised immune systems, resulting in frequent long-term severe infections severe or atypical infections as well as autoimmune manifestations.
The symptoms can develop at any age. In Canada, it is estimated that 13,000 people suffer from this kind of disease. The clinic staff also collaborates with researchers of the IRCM’s Immunity and Viral Infections Research Division to better understand the evolution of primary immunodeficiency, to identify treatments and to identify appropriate treatments.
