SIEVE2022
Add to calendar (.ics) (Zoom Link is included here)
Symposium on Immunometabolism and Extracellular Vesicles at Emory (SIEVE) 2022 will gather researchers from around the Atlanta area and collaborators worldwide for a day of scientific talks by leaders in the field of immunometabolism and extracellular vesicle (EV) biology. There will be opportunities for trainees to present and discuss their data.
EVs can serve as biomarkers of disease state and cell function, affect the activity and function of recipient cells, and serve as an alternative drug delivery vehicle. Metabolism is intrinsically linked with immune cell function and their interaction with other cells. This symposium will explore mechanisms by which cells modulate their environment and the activity of neighboring cells.
For questions please reach out to Brian Dobosh (bdobosh@emory.edu) and Rabin Tirouvanziam (tirouvanziam@emory.edu)
