ProImmune’s Mastering Immunity series of symposia has attracted 1000’s of scientists from a diverse range of organizations around the world to solve practical challenges as well as share knowledge around measuring both wanted and unwanted immune responses.

Immunology plays a critical role whether you are working in basic biological research, biotherapeutic development such as Cell and Gene Therapies, Vaccines, Antibodies, TCR-T and Complex Peptide Drugs, or even daily consumer products such as Food Proteins, Enzymes and Cosmetics.

It is imperative to be equipped with the correct tools and technologies to evaluate both desired and undesired immune responses depending on the research question to be addressed. In this symposium our expert speakers will present and discuss key new advancements in our understanding of the molecular and cellular immune response in a variety of research areas.

By participating in this symposium, you will be inspired by renowned global experts presenting their respective expertise in their research field and discussing their latest insights and what they perceive to be the main challenges still to be overcome. Don’t miss your chance to hear first hand about these developments and participate in our moderated panel discussion.
