No Thanks. I attended sessions talking on MS and other autoimmune diseases. I just asked some questions about my work from professors who saw my poster and had their comments. Research in Iran is not as serious as other countries. Attending these congresses is very helpful gaining motivation to work hard and better. University supporting of academic staff would be very useful for participation scientific meetings and improvement our works. Obviously, we also need financial support, equipped labs and better access to articles to do valuable works. |

The International European Congress of Immunology held on every 3 years in different countries in the Europe with high scientific level. The congress is usually scheduled for 4 days and different sessions of meeting are planned for different audiences such as keynote lectures, symposia, workshops, poster and so on.
The company’s exhibition area in the congress base floor was also very useful for getting familiar with new technologies in clinical laboratory and research immunology. One of the notable session was women in immunology symposium in which gender imbalance in science and societies were noticed. This symposium highlighted the historical prospective of exclusion of women in science and discussed their current situation in immunology. |
