Conference Description
The Immunochemistry and Immunobiology GRS provides a unique forum for young doctoral and post-doctoral researchers to present their work, discuss new methods, cutting edge ideas, and pre-published data, as well as to build collaborative relationships with their peers. Experienced mentors and trainee moderators will facilitate active participation in scientific discussion to allow all attendees to be engaged participants rather than spectators.
Dysregulation of the immune system is widely involved in several human diseases, including cancer and autoimmunity. The field of immunology is exploding with new techniques to better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying immune system function and misfunction. These techniques are being used to develop new therapeutic strategies to modulate immune responses and address worldwide health issues. We will explore the impact of big data and emergent polyvalent techniques to probe immune function. This seminar will go from bench to bedside to bench again as we explore current approaches in both fundamental and clinical immunology as well as modern analytic technologies in the context of human health and pathology. We will focus on emerging techniques, development of new materials and methods, and application of cross-disciplinary studies.
