Meeting: Joint Meeting of the Society for Leukocyte Biology and the International Endotoxin and Innate Immunity Society: ?Innate Immunity: Recognition, Regulation, and Response? Organizers: David M. Mosser, Ph.D. University of Maryland at College Park Stefanie N. Vogel, Ph.D. University of Maryland, Baltimore, School of Medicine Stephen Smale, Ph.D. University of California at Los Angeles Christopher Karp, M.D. Cincinnati Children?s Hospital Research Foundation Location: The Marriott Riverwalk Hotel, San Antonio, Texas Dates: November 9-11, 2006 Specific Aims: This meeting will emphasize the core processes involved in innate immunity and phagocytosis, focusing on the complex mechanisms involved in the recognition, regulation and response to pathogens. The goals of the meeting are: to provide a format to discuss important recent advances in the phagocytic cells that are involved in innate immunity and the host response to pathogens and to stimulate interactions between scientists working on diverse aspects of phagocytes, including cell biology, models, regulatory pathways and response mechanisms. The specific aims are: 1. To provide a forum for 400-500 participants from academic, industrial, and governmental laboratories to discuss recent advances in the field of innate immunity. The presentations will include talks by invited speakers, as well as talks and poster presentations chosen from submitted abstracts. 2. To present a broad overview of the field of phagocytes and innate immunity, including cutting edge research on the biology of the cells involved in the host innate immune response, the mechanisms involved in regulating phagocytosis and the intracellular killing mechanisms of professional phagocytes, and the molecular sensors and receptors involved in alerting the immune system to the presence and nature of an invader. The program will stimulate interactions between scientists working on similar topics, and interactions between scientists working in different disciplines including microbiology, cell biology, immunology, biochemistry and genomics. 3. To provide an opportunity for young investigators (graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty) to interact closely with established, influential scientists in this field, and for all participants to learn about new research opportunities. 4. To provide an opportunity for young scientists to present their research at organized poster sessions and to recognize outstanding research by providing a platform for oral presentations.
