项目摘要

Project Summary The mission of the 3rd Annual Immune Modulation and Engineering symposium, which will be held at Drexel University on Dec. 8-10, 2021, is to bring together researchers in biomedical engineering and basic and translational immunology to advance the rapidly emerging field of immune engineering. The speakers and attendees represent leaders in this field, with expertise in collaborating across disciplines to generate innovative solutions to treat cancer, infectious disease, immunological disorders and major injuries by modulating the immune system. The major objectives of this symposium are to provide a forum for the sharing of cutting edge ideas in immunomodulation, to stimulate cross-disciplinary collaborations, to introduce the next generation of scientists to this new field, and to identify challenges and opportunities to advance new and innovative technologies. Philadelphia is a prime location to host this event, as it is a recognized hub for immune modulation and engineering, with a thriving community comprising academic, entrepreneurial, and industry partners. The variety of research within Philadelphia is a microcosm of that which exists throughout the world, and the field of immune engineering and modulation is certainly diverse – encompassing topics which span from molecular engineering to clinical translation. In order to cover this broad spectrum of research, we propose to develop a series of four concentrations within the symposium with each concentration including two sessions of keynote talks from a diverse lineup of speakers. These concentrations include: cancer immunology & cell delivery, immunoregulation of injury and disease, nanomedicine and synthetic biology, and regenerative medicine and immune tissue engineering. We are committed to hosting an annual symposium that is of the highest quality while also showcasing the diversity in our fields. The organizing committee represents diverse representation in terms of gender, ethnicity, career stage, and scientific discipline. Similarly, we have selected speakers who are current or future leaders in the field of immune engineering who are also diverse in their make-up and background. Throughout the planning stages we will continue to seek input from our colleagues who represent persons from disadvantaged backgrounds, those with disabilities, and other underrepresented groups in science, and make every attempt to recruit participants from diverse backgrounds. Finally, we will help attendees identify resources for child and family care in the vicinity of the symposium, and we will make it clear that infants are welcome at the symposium.

项目摘要第三届年度免疫调制和工程研讨会的任务，将于 Drexel University于2021年12月8日至10日将生物医学工程和基础研究人员汇集在一起转化免疫学，以促进免疫工程的快速新兴领域。演讲者和与会者代表该领域的领导者，专家在跨学科合作以产生创新通过调节治疗癌症，传染病，免疫疾病和重大伤害的解决方案免疫系统。该研讨会的主要目标是为共享最前沿的论坛提供论坛免疫调节中的想法，刺激跨学科合作，介绍下一代科学家进入这个新领域，并确定挑战和机会，以推动新的和创新技术。费城是举办此活动的主要地点，因为它是公认的免疫调制枢纽工程学，一个蓬勃发展的社区完成了学术，企业家和行业合作伙伴。品种费城境内的研究是世界各地存在的缩影，也是免疫领域工程和调制肯定是多种多样的 - 包括分子工程的主题进行临床翻译。为了涵盖这一广泛的研究，我们建议开发一系列四个研讨会内的浓度，每个浓度包括两次主题演讲的会话演讲者的各种阵容。这些浓度包括：癌症免疫学和细胞输送，免疫调节损伤和疾病，纳米医学和合成生物学以及再生医学和免疫组织工程。我们致力于举办一年质量最高的年度研讨会，同时也展示我们领域的多样性。组织委员会代表潜水员的代表，以性别为角度种族，职业阶段和科学学科。同样，我们选择了当前或未来的演讲者免疫工程领域的领导者也在化妆和背景下是潜水员。自始至终计划阶段我们将继续寻求代表人民的同事的意见处境不利的背景，残疾人以及其他科学中代表性不足的群体，并使每次尝试招募潜水员背景的参与者。最后，我们将帮助与会者确定资源对于研讨会中的儿童和家庭护理，我们将明确表示受到婴儿的欢迎研讨会。
