The Immunometabolism in Health and Disease GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes an array of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field.
This meeting will explore the intricate crosstalk between metabolic pathways and immune cell function, highlighting how nutrient availability, tissue microenvironments, and systemic cues shape immune responses in health and disease. Sessions will span molecular mechanisms of nutrient sensing, lipid signaling, and mitochondrial function, as well as translational insights into cancer immunotherapy, obesity, infection, autoimmunity, and inflammation. By bridging fundamental discovery with clinical relevance, this conference aims to advance our understanding of how metabolism drives immunity and how we might harness this knowledge to improve human health.
