Your One Stop for Academic Updates

The TNNN Conference 2026 will be held 6-8 May in Trondheim. The conference will mainly take place at the campus of Gløshaugen.

The conference will begin with lunch on Wednesday, May 6, and will end on Friday, May 8, after lunch.

APP Summits focus on foundational education for relevant disease states and therapies, APP integration models, and data systems. Networking and open dialogue between attendees, peers, and manufact.urer sponsors is also a core goal of the meeting.

Who should attend: Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants.

This conference is for: General internists Subspecialists Hospitalists Family Physicians Residents Fellows in training specializing in internal medicine Medical students

This event is timed to align with the RACP Youth Appropriate Health Care statement, which is due to be released in April 2026. The topics will cover conditions that present within paediatric and child health clinical settings as well as the transition to adult-care.

The program creates space for structured reflection and meaningful discussion on everyday practice whilst allowing physicians to complete Category 2 and 3 activities and networking with peers.

A resilient microbiome is essential for human health. This community is constantly influenced by microbial, host, and environmental factors. Dysbiosis, a result of perturbations to this interactive community, has significant consequences for host physiology, but our understanding of the related regulatory mechanisms is still emerging.

The establishment and maintenance of a microbial community goes hand in hand with host immunity. As such, we have a growing understanding of microbial-immune crosstalk in modulating the microbiota and bolstering host protection. Understanding the ecology of this complex interplay is crucial for any targeted therapy since disruption of this balance leads to the manifestation of diseases.

This symposium puts the spotlight on the ecology of the human microbiome, its role in shaping host physiology, interplay with the immune system, and how we can use our understanding of these influences for therapeutic applications. It will span the following five sections:

Ecology of microbiome communities Host factors influencing the microbiome Immune-microbiome interactions Microbiome impacts on health Microbiome perturbations and therapeutic applications We are excited to bring together experts from various fields, including microbiology, immunology, metabolism, ecology, and precision medicine.

It is our pleasure to announce that the 47th Asia Pacific Dental Congress (APDC 2026) will be held by the Vietnam Odonto-Stomatology Association (VOSA) from May 11 to 14,2026 in Hanoi, Vietnam.

With the theme "Integrating Scientific Advances into Dental Practice," under the support of APDF/APRO, APDC 2026 is a great opportunity to promote connection between all dental professionals from various countries in the Asia Pacific region, participating and strengthening knowledge in the field of Dentistry. The 47th APDC, organized in Vietnam for the first time, will be combined with the 2nd Hanol International Dental Exhibition and Congress (HAIDEC 2026), a prestigious dental event that helps us to enrich experiences in daily practice by integrating scientific advances in Dentistry.

On behalf of the Organizing Committee of the 47th APDC, I would like to welcome all delegates to attend the event. I also warmly invite you all to visit Hanoi, the capital of thousand years of civilization, the city of peace having distinctive Southeast Asian charms with the hospitality of Vietnamese people.

Your strong support is highly appreciated and is indispensable for the success of the Conference

Next year's three-day conference will feature fantastic keynote speakers, presentations, posters and workshops on a wide range of child health topics. Our theme is 'Celebrating RCPCH at 30: Reflecting on the Past, Inspiring the Future'.

In classical terms, the immune system has been viewed as the host’s defense system. Tasked with recognizing foreign elements such as pathogens along with mutations of proteins encoded by self-tissue, the immune system’s teleological purpose has been assumed to be restricted to returning a damaged or threatened state to a functional resting state. However, more recently the community has realized that the immune system’s function extends beyond this remit and includes a contribution to maintain the normal function of organs and tissues in the absence of perturbations. This Cell Symposium will present insights into this conceptual space. Please join us for a fresh perspective on the multifaceted role of immune function.

Sessions include: Immune-function regulation of cardiovascular homeostasis Immune-function regulation of metabolic organ and tissue homeostasis Immune-function regulations of central and peripheral nervous-system homeostasis Immune-function regulation of intestinal homeostasis Immune-function regulation of gestation, parturition, and the effect of an aged immune system on homeostasis
