IIT Immunology Symposium with Pears Lecture

International leaders will present the latest research developments in molecular and cellular aspects of cancer immunity, autoimmunity and anti-viral immunity. The symposium will consist of sessions covering transplantation, genomics and immune development. The highlight will be the Pears Lecture which, this year, will be given by Shimon Sakaguchi from Osaka University.

The conference provides an opportunity for scientists and clinicians to meet and learn about how research leads to novel therapies for patient benefit. There will also be a session for Early Career Researcher presentations and a poster competition.
