The annual Cambridge Immunology Forum, supported by the British Society for Immunology's Cambridge Immunology Group, will be held at Queens' College Cambridge on 9 September 2021.
The 2021 meeting will focus on the fascinating area of vaccinology. With the production, distribution and effectiveness of vaccines being the centre of sometimes fierce debate in the past year, they are now a major focus of scientific organisations, policy makers and the public worldwide. This meeting aims to bring together world leaders in infectious diseases and vaccine development to provide a platform for scientific discussion, collaboration and the promotion of this particularly relevant field of research, to address not only the current pandemic but also the many infectious diseases that continue to be a global concern.
