Innate Immune Receptors: Roles in Immunology and Beyond (M1) is organized by Keystone Symposia on Molecular and Cellular Biology and will be held from Mar 10 - 14, 2019 at Academia Sinica, Taipei, Taiwan.
Course Description :
The importance of innate immune receptors was first appreciated in infectious diseases and autoinflammatory disorders, however it is now clear that their roles extend beyond innate immunology. The crucial roles of these receptors in many clinically relevant fields and their newly documented role in non-immune cells underscore their importance in biologic processes and diseases such as cancer cell death and signaling, DNA damage, stress response, stem cell proliferation/differentiation, vaccine adjuvanticity, age-related dementia, metabolic disorders and microbiome balance. By the nature of the topic, it will bring together an interdisciplinary group of investigators.
Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
