The ITN is currently seeking Concept Proposals for novel clinical trials designed to induce immune tolerance in Type 1 Diabetes, transplantation, autoimmune diseases, and allergy and asthma. In addition the ITN accepts applications for the development of novel tolerance assays or mechanistic studies for the purposes of establishing new surrogate biomarkers of immune tolerance and investigating the mechanisms of clinical tolerance. Proposals should be submitted via our site: http://www.immunetolerance.org/professionals/proposals/guidelines
