Abstract(s)

The SPI (Figure 1) was founded in 1973 by group of 13 immunologists who felt the need to create a platform dedicated to education, interaction and state of the art discussion in fundamental and clinical immunology in Portugal. Since then, the Portuguese scientific landscape has tremendously expanded in size, quality and international competitiveness, with the SPI and its members following the same trend. Currently, we have over 400 registered members, who work in research institutes across Portugal, including Instituto de Investigação e Inovação em Saúde (I3S), Instituto de Medicina Molecular (IMM), Instituto Gulbenkian de Ciência (IGC), Champalimaud Centre for the Unknown, Instituto de Investigação em Ciências da Vida e Saúde (ICVS), Centro de Neurociˆencias e Biologia Celular (CNC) and Institute of Biomedicine (iBiMED) and abroad, universities and in clinical care encompassing the fields of immune development and tolerance, cancer immunology, allergy, autoimmunity, vaccination, transplantation and infectious diseases.
