View Article  Spontaneous Models of Human Disease: 2nd February 2007 London
"The main goal of this meeting is to get together clinical and basic immunologists trying to gather insights into the pathogenic mechanisms of human diseases and immunotherapy. Due to the limitations of the human system, these investigations often rely on the use of animal models developing spontaneous diseases. In this meeting we will evaluate the pros and cons of some of the most used and valuable animal models of disease and some new models, which will open new therapeutic ways to treat human diseases."

Meetings Chair: Dr Sonia Quarantino, University of Southampton   more »

View Article  Identifying T Cell Subset Phenotype and Function: 16th March 2007 BioPark Herts
"The diversity of T cell subsets and functions makes it imperative that they can be identified, characterised, propagated, traced in vivo and their function elucidated effectively. This one day EuroSciCon meeting will provide the ideal opportunity to hear both the commercial companies presenting new techniques and academics highlighting their latest findings in this area. Similarly, there will be opportunities throughout the day for the audience to interact with these speakers and discuss their results in an informal setting." Meetings Chair: Dr Catherine Derry, Science Communicator   more »
View Article  Rational vaccine designs against cancer: London 16 October 2007
"The goal of the meeting is to bring together experts to discuss concepts and to exchange data in the field of vaccination against cancer. The focus will be on rational design of vaccines aimed to induce immunity against molecularly defined antigens where immune outcome and efficacy can be measured." Meetings Chair: Prof Freda Stevenson, University of Southampton   more »
View Article  Stem Cells meeting: 27th April 2007 Hertfordshire BioPark
The aim of this symposium is to recognise that the control of cell differentiation requires an in-depth understanding of the growth conditions and signals cells require in order to differentiate in a particular manner. This will be exemplified by a carefully selected panel of speakers who will share their experiences of controlling cell growth and differentiation using a range of alternative approaches. Meetings Chair: Dr Stefan Przyborski, University of Durham   more »
View Article  NO News is Good News: 23rd March 2007 Hertfordshire BioPark
"This meeting will examine methods used to detect and visualise NO-producing cells. Furthermore, direct and indirect techniques used to measure NO will be examined, including among others, the measurement of NOS enzymatic activity, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and NO-sensitive electrodes. Finally, tools that facilitate NO research, such as NOS inhibitors will be examined." Meetings Chair: Dr Nicholas Warrick, University of Oxford   more »
