SciLeads Attending: IMMUNOLOGY2026
We’re attending IMMUNOLOGY2026™, the leading annual event hosted by The American Association of Immunologists (AAI). We look forward to connecting with the global community of immunologists to discuss the latest advancements in research, technology, and therapeutic strategies.
About IMMUNOLOGY2026™
IMMUNOLOGY2026™ is the premier global scientific meeting dedicated to all aspects of immunology. Hosted by the AAI, the event brings together thousands of scientists from academia, industry, and government to present cutting-edge research, engage in professional development, and foster collaboration across the diverse field of immune system research.
The program is structured to provide deep insights through Major Symposia, Distinguished Lectures, the NextGen Immunologists Day, and featured presidential events, including the President’s Address on “Immunology in Space and Time” and the President’s Symposium on “Going Places: The Multi-Step Adhesion Cascade – 35 Years and Counting”.
