Beschreibung
The 78th Symposium spans a broad range of approaches towards increased understanding of the immune system including genetics, biochemistry, molecular and cell biology, and developmental biology. Fundamental biological discoveries are balanced with applications relevant to societal wellbeing including a variety of stratagems for harnessing the immune system to treat disease. Topics addressed by the Symposium include but are not limited to:

Stem cells and cell fate decisions
Regulation of immune cell development
Antigen receptor gene assembly and modification
Signal transduction
Regulation of lymphocyte function
Innate immune response and inflammation
Adaptive immunity
Mucosal immunity
Organ specific immunity
Immune regulation and tolerance
Autoimmunity and allergy
Immunity and cancer
Pathogen-immune system interactions
Vaccine development
Novel strategies to engineer/harness immunity
