We are pleased to host the 78th Cold Spring Harbor Symposium
which will address Immunity & Tolerance.
The Symposium will begin at 7:30 pm on Wednesday, May 29, 2013
and end on the evening of Monday June 3 with normal departure

The Symposium
will include 12/13 oral sessions and 2/3 poster sessions covering
the latest research in diverse areas of immunology. Most of
the talks will be given by invited speakers but we may select
a few talks from openly submitted abstracts. Social events throughout
the Symposium provide ample opportunity for informal interactions
and will include a wine-and-cheese party, a beach picnic, cocktails
and banquet, and departure brunch.
Topics:
*Stem cells and cell fate decisions
*Regulation of immune cell development
*Antigen receptor gene assembly and modification
*Signal transduction
*Regulation of lymphocyte function
* Innate immune response and inflammation
*Adaptive immunity
*Mucosal immunity
*Organ specific immunity
*Immune regulation and tolerance
*Autoimmunity and allergy
*Immunity and cancer
*Pathogen-immune system interactions
*Vaccine development
*Novel strategies to engineer/harness immunity
