Description

The advancement of immunology is extremely rapid, therefore incessant exchanges of information are necessary. This international symposium was organized in celebration of the 15th anniversary of the Japanese Society for Digestive Organs and Immunology. More than 300 scientists participated to discuss the most current features of mucosal immunology, the goal of which was to stimulate even further fruitful progress in this field.
