项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The ThymUS 2016 International Conference on Lymphopoiesis, T cell Differentiation and Immune Reconstitution will be held in Wailea Beach, HI from June 5-10, 2016. This is the fifth iteration of this conference, which is the only US-based conference specifically dedicated to the topic of the thymus and T lymphocyte differentiation, and how these processes are altered during aging and by disease. The conference therefore has a unique scientific content, addressing the highly dynamic and prolific field of adaptive immunity, thymus organogenesis, and T cell development and differentiation, and is relevant for resistance to infection, immune homeostasis from birth to aging, immune reconstitution after therapeutic or pathologic T cell ablation, self-tolerance, and autoimmunity. Importantly, the conference provides several unparalleled features, including (i) a singular focus on thymus biology, which is unique in the Americas; (ii) low cost to all attendees, with additional subsidies provided to trainees; (iii) an extremely rich array of unbiased presentation opportunities, with special attention to trainees; (iv) a highly stimulating informal interactive environment, providin trainees with access to leaders in the field for the duration of the conference; and (v) linkage to an industry-sponsored Society of Immunotherapy in Cancer (SITC) conference on immune-therapy in cancer to place in clinical context the basic science findings presented at ThymUS.

描述（由申请人提供）：Thymus 2016年造血、T细胞分化和免疫重建国际会议将于2016年6月5日至10日在夏威夷威雷亚海滩举行。这是本次会议的第五次迭代，也是唯一一次以美国为基地的会议专门致力于胸腺和T淋巴细胞分化的主题，以及这些过程是如何在衰老和疾病的改变。因此，会议具有独特的科学内容，解决了适应性免疫，胸腺器官发生和T细胞发育和分化的高度动态和多产领域，并与抗感染，从出生到衰老的免疫稳态，治疗或病理性T细胞消融后的免疫重建，自我耐受和自身免疫有关。重要的是，会议提供了几个无与伦比的特点，包括（i）一个单一的重点胸腺生物学，这是在美洲独特的;（ii）低成本的所有与会者，与额外的补贴提供给受训人员; ㈢一系列极为丰富的不带偏见的演讲机会，特别注意学员; ㈣一个非常有启发性的非正式互动环境，使学员在会议期间有机会接触到实地的领导人; ㈤与一个由行业赞助的癌症免疫治疗协会（SITC）关于癌症免疫治疗的会议，将在ThymUS上提出的基础科学发现置于临床环境中。
