About this event
- Date and time Tue 21 Jan 2025 from 8:15am to 22 Jan 2025 at 5:00pm
- Location Royal Society of Medicine
- Organised by Pathology, Pathological Society of Great Britain and Ireland
Gain insight into the cellular changes observed in disease and how these changes may be modelled to allow better understanding of disease at this upcoming event. Bridging the gap between cellular changes, and the manifestation and treatment of disease, leading researchers will describe how changes in the immune system and in the vasculature may vary with time and be harnessed to treat disease. They will also explain new models for both neoplastic and non-neoplastic diseases, and how combining data from different sources can give a complete picture of a disease.
This event will bring together pathologists, scientists, front-line clinicians, trainees and undergraduate students to create a stimulating academic environment. Through a mixture of state-of-the-art lectures and presentation of cutting-edge research, delegates will gain up to date knowledge and learn about the latest advances in pathology research.
By attending, you will:
- Learn about changes in the immune system in different disease processes and how these can be harnessed to fight disease
- Learn about the latest methods of in-vitro tissue culture to model normal tissue and disease
- Learn about the integration of multiplatform data in disease
