Workshop: Advances in Immunoengineering: Fundamental and Cutting-Edge Advances

Description

The immunoengineering field is transforming cancer, autoimmunity, regeneration, and transplantation treatments by combining the diverse and complex fields of engineering and immunology. There is a significant need to train engineers in immunology and immunologists in quantitative engineering techniques. Moreover, there is a need to bridge basic immunological discoveries with advances in clinical application. This workshop will review immune system fundamentals and components, engineering strategies to modulate the immune system, and clinical applications. Learn more about the workshop or read the flyer.

This workshop is eligible for CME credit and offered as a two-credit course for Johns Hopkins students (students need to register for a course and the workshop to get credit). Register for free by Dec. 30, 2021, at 5 p.m. ET (a late fee applies).

The workshop is held every Tuesday and Thursday from Jan. 4 to 27, 2022.

• Week 1: T Cell Engineering and Immunometabolism
• Week 2: Regenerative Immunology and T Cell Programing
• Week 3: Immunotherapy, Vaccine, and Autoimmunity
• Week 4: Immunoengineering, Tissue Context, and Immunotherapies

This workshop is hosted by the Johns Hopkins Translational ImmunoEngineering hub in the School of Medicine, part of the National Centers for Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering network.
