The Center for Biomedical Research Excellence (CoBRE) for Host-Pathogen Interactions is inviting UND faculty, staff, and graduate and undergraduate students to attend the Annual Host-Pathogen CoBRE Symposium to be held at the University of North Dakota School of Medicine & Health Sciences on Tuesday, Sept. 17. The Symposium will bring together experts investigating both microbial infectious agents and host responses to those infectious agents.
Confirmed speakers for the event are:
- Dr. John Gallin from the National Institutes of Health
- Dr. Jenny Ting from the University of North Carolina
In addition, investigators from the University of North Dakota will present their research related to infection and immunity in both oral and a poster session.
This event aims to promote interaction and collaboration among researchers in the area and provide opportunities for learning about cutting-edge tools, approaches, and resources to advance their research in broad areas of infection and inflammation.
Researchers investigating host-pathogen questions are encouraged to submit an abstract for poster presentation (to be held in the afternoon on September 17) to Shannon Bupp (shannon.bupp@und.edu) by Wednesday, July 31. Prior on-line registration is appreciated. Registration for the symposium will close Saturday, Aug. 10.
