The Immunoreceptors and Immunotherapy Conference
July 17–21, 2022
New Orleans, LA
#IIC22
Summary
July 17-21, 2022
Launched in 1987, this FASEB Science Research Conference (SRC) continues to foster a highly interactive community of researchers focused on solving important problems in immunoreceptor and immunotherapy biology.
Immunoreceptors play a central role in cancer, autoimmunity, and infectious diseases, while immunotherapy is the rapidly expanding field focused on meeting these challenges and changing people’s lives in the clinic. The meeting program addresses new directions in the field by featuring the best science related to immune receptor function, immune cell signaling, and developing immunotherapy approaches.
The conference brings together international scientists from academia, government, and industry to discuss the very latest developments in the areas of immunoreceptors and immunotherapy.

Program
The thematic focus is on research topics at the forefront of immunobiology research ranging from basic science to translational applications. Presentations will integrate state-of-the-art technologies in imaging, structural analysis, computational modeling, and therapeutic approaches.
Conference sessions will present the latest research and foster discussion on:
The conference covers eight oral sessions—32 invited speakers and 16 short talks selected from abstracts—and two interactive poster sessions. For trainees and junior faculty, the conference features three "Meet the Expert" lunch sessions with experts in the field offering career and scientific advice, and the highly popular Career Development Workshop, “Choosing Your Career Destination and How to Not Get Lost On the Way,” an interactive questions and answers session with experts from academia and industry.
