The knowledge of human immunology has witnessed an exponential improvement in last two decades and further advances are eminent in near future. These advances in the field of immunology can be applied to broad range of immune pathologies. Furthermore, these advances have led to an increased interest in better understanding, managing, and manipulating the immune response in both health and disease.
Agenda of the Member Society Symposium organized by Indian Immunology Society in FOCIS-2023 encompasses a total of 11 lectures focused on research advances made in autoimmunity, transplantation immunology, macrophage biology, sepsis, antibody engineering, vaccine development, tuberculosis and immune therapeutics in cancer.
The symposium is an excellent platform for Indian immunologists to present their globally relevant research findings to the FOCIS 2023 attendees and would mutually enhance the skill sets of speakers as well as the attendees and establish new collaborations.
The agenda has been created with an aim to represent early career researchers, accomplished scientists and a bright PhD scholar. With the gender ratio of female to male speakers as 8:3, the bar has been raised to create more opportunities for our women scientists.
