Conference Overview
We are pleased to announce the Cold Spring Harbor Asia conference on Infection & Immunity, which will be held at the Suzhou Dushu Lake Conference Center in Suzhou, China. The conference will commence at 7:00pm on the evening of Thursday September 8, 2011, and conclude after lunch on Monday September 12, 2011.
This conference maintains the essence of the renowned Cold Spring Harbor NY meetings series, now in its 76th year. It will feature eight oral sessions and one poster session, covering the latest findings across various topics in infection and immunity research. Talks will be selected from openly submitted abstracts based on scientific merit and relevance.
Major Topics
Pattern recognition and innate immunity
Innate immune signaling
Stem cell and immune development
Transcriptional control of immune response
Immune response to viral infections
Immune response to bacterial infections
Vaccines against infections
