7th International Symposium on Molecular Allergology

The 7th International Symposium on Molecular Allergology (ISMA) will be organized in Luxembourg from 9th to 11th November 2017. ISMA is one of the 8 focused meetings organized by the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI). It is a biannual meeting attracting scientists from all over the world to present cutting edge science and discussions in a focused area. This year, for the first time, the meeting is structured into 2 parallel session tracks, one covering the classical ISMA topics such as allergen structure and function, allergy diagnosis and clinical management, immunotherapy and prevention. The second track will focus on novel developments in microbiome, omics, biomarker, biologicals and tolerance induction research. Plenary sessions are foreseen at the start of the meeting, in the morning of the second day and at the end of the symposium. The plenary sessions cover the immunological basis of the allergic response, allergy diagnosis, new developments in precision medicine and future therapeutics.
Participation to the meeting is open to all interested persons. Participants are welcomed to submit abstracts in order to induce a fruitful scientific exchange. Posters will be displayed throughout the meeting, poster discussions are organized in two sessions and best posters will be awarded. In addition, 15 travel grants are given to young scientists. Based on the reputation of the ISMA meetings and the attractive program of the present application, it is to be expected that about 400 participants from more than 30 countries, including Europe, Asia, America and Australia will attend the symposium. A total of 39 internationally renowned speakers from 17 countries have been invited in order to guarantee a worldwide scientific representation.
