RCAI-JSI International Symposium
3rd RCAI-JSI International Symposium on Immunology
Development and Maintenance of Immune System
Jul. 26-27, 2007
The RCAI-JSI International Symposium on Immunology is a series of annual conferences hosted by
RIKEN Research Center for Allergy and Immunology (RCAI) in conjunction with the Japanese Society for Immunology (JSI).
The symposium was founded in 2005 to provide a forum for active discussions on the cutting edge of immunological research.
The steering committee is composed of the representatives of RCAI and JSI, and organizes the program with advice from the
international advisory committee.
The RCAI-JSI international symposium is complementary to JSI International Symposia that are held during its annual meeting.
These meetings promote the progress of immunology and encourage young researchers not only in Japan but also in Asia and all over the world.
In the first and second RCAI-JSI International Symposia, more than 500 people gathered to learn about the most advanced topics in immunology and exchange their results.
At the third symposium, we will focus on "Development and Maintenance of the Immune System".
The symposium will be divided into four sections, 'Development of the Immune System', 'The Mechanism of Lymphocyte Selection',
'Functional Differentiation of Lymphocyte Subsets', and 'Maintenance of the Functional Immune System'.
Twenty invited researchers will introduce their cutting edge research. We believe that in this rapidly advancing era of science,
direct interaction between people is one of the most effective ways to spread knowledge and inspire researchers to explore new directions.
We hope that during the symposium, people will consider both newly solved and yet un-solved problems,
and that the symposium will function to connect the researchers, and contribute to future studies of immunological science.
We welcome your registration and attendance.
