What We Do – Supporting and Promoting Excellence
GA²LEN, the Global Allergy and Asthma Excellence Network was created in 2005 to combat fragmentation in the European research area, ensuring excellence in EU allergy and asthma research by bringing together institutions and researchers from across the EU. The network notably put in place centralized structures and a central office overseeing the multiple assets in knowledge in the different GA²LEN partners, enabling them to optimally synchronize their research efforts. GA²LEN is now recognized worldwide as a global network of collaborating academic centres in the field of allergy.
GA²LEN’s vision is to further reduce the burden of allergic diseases globally by improving the health of citizens with allergic diseases; increasing the competitiveness and boosting the innovative capacity of health-related industries and businesses while addressing health issues including emerging allergies.
Qualified centers
