Frontiers in Basic Immunology 2018 (Day 1)
The purpose of this conference is to provide an opportunity for scientists from the Center for cancer Research, other NCI divisions and NIH institutes, as well as from the extramural community academia and the biotech industry), to gather and exchange information about the latest developments in basic immunology. The conference on basic immunology has been held every three years and has become one of the premier meetings in this field.For more information go tohttps://ncifrederick.cancer.gov/Events/Conferences/Frontiers/Air date: 9/27/2018 8:30:00 AM (Source: Videocast - All Events)

Regulating Autoimmunity and Autoinflammation: Cytokine blockade and beyond
Immunonology IG Seminar
Richard Siegel's interest in immunology and apoptosis began in the late 1980's at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine where he was an M.D., Ph.D. student. Working with Mark Greene and John Reed, he studied the influence of bcl-2 on T cell apoptosis and repertoire selection. He trained in Internal Medicine and Rheumatology at Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, and moved to the NIH in 1996 to do postdoctoral training with Michael Lenardo in the Laboratory of Immunology in the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease. There he studied apoptosis signaling and the molec...

Development and Function of Dendritic Cells in the Immune Response
Immunonology IG Seminar
Dr. Ken Murphy obtained his MD and PhD from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. In 1984, he began a residency in Pathology at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. After this, he did postdoctoral work in molecular immunology with Dr. Dennis Loh, where he generated the DO11.10 TCR transgenic mouse used in studies of self-tolerance, and later in studies of Th1/Th2 development. In 1990, he joined the Pathology and Immunology Department at Washington University, where he is now full professor and an investigator of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. His work has focused o...

B cells in Autoimmune diseases: Focus on Sj ö gren's Syndrome
NIDCR Clinical Research Fellowship Grand Rounds
B cells play a complex role in the development of systemic autoimmune diseases, especially in primary Sj ö gren's syndrome, a progressive condition that damages saliva and tear glands and leads to dry mouth, dry eyes, and other symptoms. Dr. Jacques-Olivier Pers will outline growing evidence that regulatory B lymphocytes (Breg) may blunt the pathogenesis of systemic autoimmune disease, and thus may be potential targets for treatment. Studies of distinct B cell subsets that play differing roles in autoimmune diseases are providing new insights into Breg development and immune...

Autoimmunity, Cancer and Immunology (Day 2)
This meeting will focus on 2 issues and will include speakers from the NIH intramural and extramural communities:
Understanding the biology of immune-related adverse events which have occurred in cancer patients being treated with immunotherapies and how that might inform the study of autoimmune disease.
Defining the potential for the study of autoimmune disease to lead to greater understanding of the treatment and management of immune-related adverse events during and following cancer therapies.For more information go tohttps://ncifrederick.cancer.gov/events/CicAutoimmune2018/default.aspAir date: 3/23/2018 8:00:00 AM ...
