Description

We warmly invite you to ASI StromOz 2023
Stromal immunology is the study of how non-hematopoietic cells influence the immune system and drive immunological outcomes. It is fundamental to immunological health, with high impact findings relevant to many branches of immunology and cell biology, including: T and B cell biology, tumour immunology, intestinal, lung, vascular and adipose biology, rheumatology, neuroimmunology, developmental immunology, cell therapy and regenerative medicine.

A collective identity has begun to emerge in the past 6 years, yielding transformative advances, high impact findings, and a rapidly increasing number of drugs in development pipelines.

This meeting is a terrific opportunity to trade ideas with some of the world’s foremost stromal immunologists. If you think that fibroblasts, endothelial cells, epithelial cells or any non-hematopoietic stromal cell impacts immune health or immune-mediated inflammatory disease in your favourite system, come along and discuss your data or your ideas in a friendly space. Early-career researchers and students are very welcome. 

What are we covering?
We have assembled an exciting one-day event, covering all aspects of stromal immunology research, and with plenty of opportunities for oral presentations.

Prizes will be awarded for the best abstract-selected talk, best ECR talk, and best poster.  

We have a fantastic line up of international and national invited speakers, including: 

Prof Burkhard Ludewig (Kantonsspital St.Gallen, Switzerland),
Prof Mark Coles (The Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, Oxford University, UK)
Prof. Mariapia Degli-Esposti (Monash University)
Prof. Rod Dunbar (University of Auckland, NZ)
