Together with the UAB, the Universitat de Barcelona (UB) provide to the students a solid base in Immunology in their first semester, necessary to understand the courses provided by the other partner universities. The UB with UAB currently organises the joint selection of students for the LIVE Master. They also participate in all the joint committees required for the efficient running of the programme.

The UB has a longstanding experience by teaching, in partnership with the UAB, the Master of Advanced Immunology. This master has attracted students worldwide, including Europe, Central and South America, North America and Africa, due to an outstanding local research environment, constituted of basic science as well as clinical and applied research. The teachers implicated in our programme are recruited from state-of-the-art, newly established research centres that include the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG), the Institute for Biomedical Research (IRB), or the Research Centre for Animal Health (CRESA), the latter being especially valuable for the Vaccinology Master as it contains a Biosafety Level 3 installation.
