The “Diversity in Immunology” conference for this year is set to celebrate both the immune system’s intrinsic diversity, which is vital for providing adequate immunity in different environments, and the diverse perspectives of researchers dedicated to its study. This biological complexity arises from multiple factors at the molecular, cellular, and systemic levels, as well as through evolutionary and environmental influences, ultimately shaping health and disease.
The BSI London Immunology Group (LIG) invites participants to a one-day event at the Holiday Inn – Brentford Lock, which will showcase cutting-edge research exploring the multifaceted nature of the immune system. Through a combination of invited talks, short presentations, and poster sessions, the meeting will highlight diversity in immune regulation, disease responses, and novel therapeutic approaches, while also fostering a platform to discuss equity and inclusion in immunological research. Delegates are encouraged to submit abstracts for posters and invited talks, presenting a valuable opportunity for early career researchers to present and discuss their work. This event underscores the belief that diversity in science—whether in ideas, immune mechanisms, or the individuals driving innovation—is essential for advancing knowledge and improving outcomes in immunology, offering an exciting opportunity to connect, share, and celebrate.
