ImmunoE About Us

Vision

ImmunoE aims to transform how Canada trains and empowers highly qualified personnel (HQP) in the Life Sciences, Immunology and Bioengineering sectors so that they can be equipped to meet the rapidly growing demands for the development of next-generation immunotherapeutics in the biotechnology industry.

1. Bridge academia and industry to close the gap between fundamental research and biotechnology innovation.

2. Develop next-generation immunoengineers by training HQP with advanced technical and professional competencies for careers in academia and biotech sectors.

3. Foster translational impact and empower trainees to move discoveries towards real-world immunotherapeutic applications.

4. Build inclusive pathways that advance equity and diversity by expanding access to high-level training and leadership opportunities.

5. Strengthen Canadas bioeconomy and position Canada as a leader in the development and commercialization of next generation Immunotherapies.

Goals

Mission

Through the ImmunoE NSERC CREATE platform, we train graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in Immunoengineering. This training integrates industrial knowledge and professional skill development to seamlessly connect discovery, translation and commercialization. Our program emphasizes entrepreneurship, communication and project management, while embedding equity, diversity and inclusion principles to strengthen representation across Canada’s biotechnology talent pipeline.
