Regulation and Dysregulation of Innate Immunity in Disease (B9)
OVERVIEW
Regulation and Dysregulation of Innate Immunity in Disease (B9) is organized by Keystone Symposia on Molecular and Cellular Biology and will be held during Feb 18 - 22, 2018 at Hotel Vancouver, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
Course Summary :
The innate immune system is fundamental to protect us from pathogens. Although the core components were first elucidated in model organisms such as Drosophila and mice, exactly how they are regulated in human health and contribute to disease remains to be fully defined. Over the past several years, our ability to study the innate immune response has been enabled by a number of transformative tools that can be used to assess gene expression, cellular physiology and gene function. Such technological advances have begun to reveal new components of the innate immune system and have led to a better understanding of its regulation and dysregulation. Importantly, these new insights have allowed us to better understand the pathophysiological basis of certain human diseases and to identify new therapeutic targets to alleviate them. This conference aims to gather different view-points on the field of innate immunity to discuss advances in signaling and regulatory networks and to understand how their dysregulation contributes to immunopathologies and auto-inflammatory conditions.
Additional Details will be posted as soon as they are available
