LAIT - IMMUNOTHERAPY LABORATORY
On December 2 and 3, 2024, the Immunotherapy Laboratory (LAIT) has the honor of promoting the 1st National Immunotherapy Symposium.
This event will bring together renowned researchers and professionals in the field, presenting and discussing the most recent advances in immunotherapy and the study of the tumor microenvironment.
Lectures will cover a wide range of topics, including CAR-T development, mRNA-based immunotherapies, resident macrophages, monoclonal antibody engineering, multiomics analysis, and studies on immunotherapy and vaccines for glioblastoma.
Additionally, participants will have the opportunity to attend work presentations, poster exhibitions and participate in exclusive networking sessions.
Prepare for a deep dive into the cutting edge of immunotherapeutic science. Spaces are limited, so make sure you register!

References should be restricted to a minimum (no author names) and, if necessary, the abbreviated journal title should be used, followed by volume: first page-last page, year (e.g. Brain Res. 472:24-40, 1992). Citations like (Ashley et al., 1994) will not be accepted.
-
Abstracts should not exceed Two thousand (2,000) characteres including spaces.
-
Abstract titles should not exceed 255 characters, including spaces.
-
The names, e-mails, CPF (only Brazilians) and Passport number and affiliations of all authors should be included in the abstract submission form.
-
Abbreviations should be defined when they are first mentioned in the abstract.
-
Abstracts should not contain tables, graphs, or images.
-
The poster must contain the authors’ title, name and affiliation;
-
The title of the poster must be the same as the accepted abstract;
-
Measure: 0.90m x 1.20m (width x height) with string for hanging;
-
They should include: introduction, objectives, methodology, results and conclusions.
-
Presentation of the poster for selected abstract are MANDATORY.
As a reminder, all accepted abstracts must be accompanied by a poster presentation. The poster must be presented by the participant who submitted the abstract (PRESENTER) at the time and place determined by the organization.
All poster presentations will be evaluated by independent evaluators, based on the following criteria:
-
Relevance
-
