Wild and Comparative Immunology 2020
by Andy Flies 03 Dec '20

03 Dec '20

Hello all, In 2019 we held the inaugural Wild and Comparative Immunology (WACI) workshop in Hobart. Our in person workshop discussions led to a 'Rewilding immunology<https://science.sciencemag.org/content/369/6499/37>' Perspective article in Science from our WACI consortium. This year we are totally online and have 33 speakers and over 135 people registered from 12 countries (https://www.wacimmuno.com/program/). There are still two days left to register for the 2020 Wild and Comparative Immunology workshop (https://www.wacimmuno.com/registration-2020/) and there is no fee this year. In 2021 we hope to get back to in person workshops, and will be supported as an Australian and New Zealand Society for Immunology (ASI) special interest group.

03 Dec '20

A conference that has come to my attention this morning: just in the nick of time for early bird registration (which appears to cover a coffee cart surprise in the mail, and a dinner if at all possible). Good morning everyone, Our flagship Australian Epigenetics Alliance conference will be held in February next year, all online and with a fantastic speaker list! Please see below for further information. Early bird registration closes on 4th December 2020, along with abstract submission for oral presentations. I hope to see you online! Cheers, Pip A message from the Australian Epigenetics Alliance (AEpiA): [cid:image001.png@01D6C890.BCC262B0]<https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/sZR3C81Zm7fK6kY5cnHkOM?domain=ausepi21.ep…> Dear friends & colleagues, Our flagship scientific meeting, Epigenetics 2021<https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/TdRUC91Zn7fpkO2WcE4LBo?domain=ausepi21.ep…>, will be online next 17- 19th February 2021. This meeting will bring together Australian and international researchers from across epigenetics-related fields, connecting senior, emerging and early-career scientists. Register by Friday 4th December for early bird rates <https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/XF_uC0YZ4yFLGymXs2rxPN?domain=ausepi21.ep…> Early bird rates: Regular: $150 / Student: $100 Abstract Submission Deadline: Friday 4th December 2020<https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/P_QsCgZovVC7ABG1s3itWA?domain=ausepi21.ep…> We invite abstracts for both oral and poster presentation. We will have awards for Best Talks & Best Student Talks, and poster prizes too. Program & Speakers: Epigenetics 2021 will be a fully immersive virtual event using the Attendify and Gather platforms. We've been planning a fantastic program<https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/SD19CjZryVCvnOR4S14afD?domain=ausepi21.ep…>, with session topics including: Single-cell epigenetics, Epigenetics and stem cells Epigenetics in immunity Environmental epigenetics Transgenerational epigenetics and DOHAD Integrative OMICs (including epigenetics) Epigenetic aging Translational and clinical epigenetics We have a wonderful line-up of invited speakers<https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/8VlyCk8vzVfpOw5yc8ha1S?domain=ausepi21.ep…>, including keynote international speakers Steve Horvath (UCLA, USA), Liran Carmel (Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel) and Wolf Reik (Babraham Institute, UK). We also have many national speakers, invited from all over Australia. Coffee & Dinner: Everyone who registers before the end of December can also chose to receive a coffee cart surprise in the post!
