Edinburgh Immunology Group & The BSI Inflammation Subgroup Conference Inflammation – from initiation to restoration. This meeting examines the role of inflammation in causing tissue damage and the loss of tissue homeostasis, through modulation of the immune system by inflammatory processes, and into the repair and regeneration of tissue and resolution of inflammation. For further details and to register please click here. Programme Day 1 - Wednesday 24 April 2019 08:30 - 17:00 Registration (open for both days) The first day of the conference is reserved for early career speakers (MSc, PhD and postdocs) to present their work. We invite submissions for talks and posters from early career speakers for our MSc / PhD and postdoc sessions - which have prizes! Posters from this day will remain up throughout the conference. This day will also have an AMA Careers panel including an editor from Nature Reviews Immunology, a medical liasion officer, and a network manager for the International Vaccinology Network, and a keynote talk from Dr Henry McSorley who will be discussing his exciting research and how he developed his ideas.
