In 2009, the Kühne Foundation launched the Christine Kühne – Center for Allergy Research and Education (CK-CARE) with locations in Davos, Munich and Zurich. The goal was to build a highly qualified and well-connected research network to advance the understanding and drive new treatments of allergies. CK-CARE is now one of the largest private initiatives in Europe in the field of allergology. In 2014, after a successful external evaluation, CK-CARE was expanded with new locations in Bonn, Augsburg and St. Gallen.

With the formation of a unique alliance of international experts based in key research centers, CK-CARE aims to address deficits in the areas of diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of people with allergic disorders through research and education, making an important contribution to patients’ long-term well-being.

 

CK-CARE, Christine Kühne – Center for Allergy Research and Education, is a programm of the Kühne Foundation without commercial interest and industry sponsoring.
