Bench and Bed Immunology 2019

28.02. - 01.03.2019, Hotel Stadt Freiburg

The BBI Seminar is directed to Master students of the Faculty of Biology, and of the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry, and to Medical doctors in training, Doctoral students, young Post Docs.

BBI bridges the gap between basic immunological research and clinical immunology focusing on immunopathology of diseases and their treatment.

The BBI is based on the cross-border support by the Franco-German University (UFA). It is organised and held by fundamental immunologists and clinician scientists from Strasbourg, Freiburg Mainz, Heidelberg and Basel.

The focus of BBI2019 will be Immunodeficiencies.
