Biophysical immunoengineering: from insight to clinical application
Discussion meeting organised by Dr Iain E Dunlop and Professor Daniel M Davis FMedSci.
In the human immune response a key role is played by biophysics: cell mechanics, nanostructure, and dynamics. An emerging field of immunoengineering is exploiting this insight with new biomaterials and devices, with great success in controlling cellular activation in T and Natural Killer cells. But will these biophysical approaches compete with or complement biochemical and genetic methods in clinical application?
Poster session
There will be a poster session on Monday 11 May 2026. If you would like to present a poster, please submit your proposed title, abstract (up to 200 words), author list, and the name of the proposed presenter and institution to the Scientific Programmes team. Acceptances may be made on a rolling basis so we recommend submitting as soon as possible in case the session becomes full. Submissions made within one month of the meeting may not be included in the programme booklet.
