| Dr Emily Edwards will host the symposium |
October 11th sees the second annual symposium of
the Jeffrey Modell Foundation (JMF) Centre for Primary Immunodeficiencies Melbourne, hosted by our own Dr Emily Edwards. The event theme is ‘Bridging
Research and Care for Patients’, and it promises to provide stimulating content
relevant to researchers in immunology, infectious diseases, and
gastrointestinal medicine among others.
The Department of Immunology and Pathology’s A/Prof Menno van Zelm serves as the Director of the JMF Centre Melbourne, and Dr Emily Edwards is
acting as conference host. Emily’s work focuses on investigating the impact of
genetic mutations on B cell differentiation and function in patients with
primary immunodeficiencies. She’ll be presenting on flow cytometry approaches
to diagnosis and identification of prognostic markers for the development of
non-infectious complications in primary immune deficiencies.
The keynote speech on B-cell deficiencies will be delivered
by A/Prof Mirjam van der Burg from Leiden University Medical Centre in The Netherlands.
Other talks throughout the day-long event include Dr Josh Chatelier from Alfred Health and short talks including case
studies and research reports by registrars and junior researchers.
The Jeffrey Modell Diagnostics and Research Centre for
Primary Immunodeficiencies in Melbourne is a multi-institutional network of
researchers and clinicians within the city, and is part of an international
research network driving early diagnosis and optimal treatment of patients.
