The goal of this workshop is to bring together established investigators and students at graduate and post-graduate levels that have a common research interest in fundamental and applied aspects that can be defined broadly as comparative immunity, and that can have relevance to pathology, infectious diseases, ecology, development, evolution, and conservation biology.The objectives of this workshop are to: (1) establish and maintain an active scientific, educational and professional network among laboratories working in the diverse areas of comparative immunology; (2) provide better and updated information of the scientific activities of the different laboratories; (3) connect students with potential laboratories that have postdoctoral position available; (4) develop collaborations among various laboratories; and (5) improve and diversify student education and training in comparative immunology.The scientific program will include 30-minute keynote presentations by selected leading investigators who will provide an overview and update of their particular area of research. Other talks of 10-12 minutes will be selected based on abstracts and delivered by an equal number of established investigators and trainees. To provide further opportunity for discussion and interaction among investigators and students, a poster session including both established investigators and students is also planned.This workshop is strongly focused on education, training, connectivity and career building for graduate and post-graduate students. To this end, the organizers will ensure an equal number of presentations by students and established investigators Further, the attendance will be kept modest (50 to 70 participants), and there will be no parallel sessions. To encourage excellence in research and presentation, an award will be given for the best oral and the best poster presentation by a student. To enhance the educational component of the workshop, written feedback from evaluators will be provided for each student presenter

这个研讨会的目标是聚集在基础和应用方面有共同研究兴趣的知名研究人员和研究生，这些方面可以被广泛地定义为比较免疫，并可能与病理学、传染病、生态学、发育、进化和保护生物学相关。这个研讨会的目标是：(1)在从事比较免疫学不同领域工作的实验室之间建立和保持积极的科学、教育和专业网络；(2)提供不同实验室科学活动的更好和最新的信息；(3)将学生与潜在的有博士后职位的实验室联系起来；(4)发展不同实验室之间的合作；以及(5)改善和多样化学生在比较免疫学方面的教育和培训。科学计划将包括由选定的主要研究人员进行30分钟的主题演讲，他们将提供他们特定研究领域的概述和最新情况。其他10-12分钟的演讲将根据摘要进行选择，并由同等数量的既定调查人员和受训人员进行演讲。为了给研究人员和学生提供进一步讨论和互动的机会，还计划举办一次海报会议，包括知名调查人员和学生。这次研讨会主要关注研究生和研究生的教育、培训、联系和职业发展。为此，组织者将确保学生和资深调查人员的陈述数量相等，出席人数将保持适度(50至70人)，并且不会举行平行会议。为了鼓励优秀的研究和演讲，学生的最佳口头演讲和最佳海报演讲将被授予一个奖项。为了加强研讨会的教育内容，将向每位学生讲演者提供评价者的书面反馈
