Pattern Recognition Molecules and Immune Sensors of Pathogens (Z1)
Organizer(s) Jenny P. Ting, Richard A. Flavell and Luke A.J. O'Neill
March 29—April 3, 2009
Fairmont Banff Springs • Banff, Alberta Canada
Abstract Deadline: Dec 2, 2008
Late Abstract Deadline: Dec 31, 2008
Scholarship Deadline: Dec 2, 2008
Early Registration Deadline: Jan 29, 2009
Supported by the Directors' Fund
Joint Meeting:
Dendritic Cells (Z2)
Summary of Meeting:
The discovery of evolutionarily conserved immune genes and pathways has led to an explosive discovery phase in innate immunity. These pathways include TLR, NLR, C-type lectin Receptor, and the helicase-containing anti-viral proteins. These novel pathways merge the innate and adaptive branches of immunity, and converge on a wide range of disorders including infectious diseases, inflammation and autoimmunity. All of the above have systemic effects that can affect the outcome of a wide range of diseases ranging from cancer to cardiovascular disorders.

Supported by the Society for Mathematical Biology and the NIH-funded PRiME (Program for Research on Immune Modeling and Experimentation) Initiative
The immune system acts across multiple scales of space and time involving complex interactions and feedback. Computational modeling provides a framework to integrate observational data collected from multiple modes of experimentation and can provide insight into immune cell function in health and disease. Computational approaches have been increasingly applied to problems in immunology, providing methods that range from the inference of transcriptional programs to the prediction of drug treatment effects on viral dynamics. This workshop will cover recent advances and potential applications of computational modeling and methods to dendritic cells.
