National EventsVisit and Special Seminar: Dr Eleanor FishDr Eleanor Fish is the Director of the Arthritis and Autoimmunity Research Centre University Health Network and Head of the Division of Cell and Molecular Biology, Toronto General Research Institute. Visit: Monash Institute of Medical Research Seminar: Interferons, Infections & Immunity: linking the 3 'I's 15th International Pathogenic Neissera Conference (IPNC 2006, Australia)October 15-17, 2006 The Immunology Group of Victoria (IgV) Annual RetreatGuest speakers include: Len Harrison, Margaret Hibbs, Sharon Lewin, Marshall Lightowlers, Shaun McColl, Jamie Rossjohn, Staurt Tangye, Ilia Voskoboinik, Bruce Wines 6th International Symposium on Shiga Toxin (Verocytotoxin) – producing Escherichia coli infections (VTEC 2006 Melbourne)Plans to cover all aspects of VTEC biology within the major themes of: Australian Society for Microbiology Victoria and Tasmania Bi-State ConferenceFood – Medicinal Microbiology 36th Annual Australasian Society for Immunology MeetingDecember 3-7, 2006 The Inaugural Australian TLR Conference (TLROZ)Pattern Recognition Receptors in Immunity and Disease. Guest speakers include: Doug Golenbock, Luke O’Neill, Eicke Latz, Jurg Tschopp, Katherine Fitzgerald, Steve Gerondakis, Bryan Williams. 11th Australasian Autoimmunity Workshop (AAWXI)Guest speakers include: Vijay Kuchroo (Center for Neurologic Diseases, Boston), Lars Fugger (Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine, Oxford), M. Eric Gershwin (Genome and Biomedical Sciences Faculty, University of California - Davis). 2007 Annual Scientific Meeting of the Australian Society for Microbiology (ASM 2007 Adelaide)The theme of the meeting, Fermenting New Ideas, gives an insight into some of our heritage as Microbiologists as well as looking to the future for new and exciting opportunities. The discovery of penicillin of course has links to South Australia and the wine industry is currently very important to us, both of which centre on microorganisms and their manipulation. During the social events of the meeting we will be exploring the concept of Vintage Microbiology and how history has shaped what we do now and how we will proceed into the future in many different aspects of Microbiology. BacPath9: Molecular Analysis of Bacterial PathogensGuest speakers include: Klaus Aktories (bacterial toxins), Stephan Lory (pathogenesis of Pseudomonas), Carmen Buchrieser (genomics and pathogenesis of Legionella) and Ben Adler (bacterial surfaces and pathogenesis). The Immunology Group of Victoria (IgV) Annual Meeting 2007Guest Speakers include: David Anderson, Richard Boyd, Jonathon Cebon, Bill Heath, Andrew Nash, Stephen Nutt, Mark Smyth, Andreas Strasser, Charles Surh (Keynote speaker), Ian van Driel, Steve Wesselingh The Australasian Society for Immunology (ASI) Annual Meeting 2007December 2-6, 2007 ISAI2008: Innate Immune Sculpting of Adaptive ImmunityHeld in conjunction with the Annual Scientific Meeting of the CRC for Chronic Inflammatory Diseases IgV Annual Meeting12-14 October, 2008 The Australian Health and Medical Research CongressIncludes Australian Toll-like Receptor Research Network hosted symposium. Speakers include: Yoichiro Iwakura (University of Tokyo, Japan), Andrew Currie (University of Western Australia), Ashley Mansell (Monash Medical Centre), Brendan O’Sullivan (Diamantina Institute for Cancer, Immunology & Metabolic Medicine/University of Queensland), Glen Scholz (The University of Melbourne) Matthew Sweet (University of Queensland), Bryan Williams (Monash Institute of Medical Research) International EventsImmunodiagnostics and Immunomonitoring: From Research to Clinic ConferenceThe goal of the Immunodiagnostics and Immunomonitoring, from Research to Clinic conference is to expose basic and clinical immunologists, pathologists, and pharmacologists, as well as practicing clinicians and R&D scientists, to the newest developments in the field. Innate Immunity: Receptors, Response & RegulationJoint meeting of the Society for Leukocyte Biology and the International Endotoxin and Innate Immunity Society 4th Annual Conference on Vaccines: All Things ConsideredThe goal of Vaccines - All Things Considered is to make the benefits and impact of vaccines better understood and more accepted by all segments of our society. We have assembled an impressive faculty of speakers with representation from industry, academia and the public sector to address a broad range of vaccine related topics.

This program aims to provide an opportunity for young scientists to learn the cutting-edge immunology research. For this purpose, the program consists of lectures by the internationally distinguished immunologists and poster presentation by each participant. This is widely open to the talented graduate students and young postdocs and lodging and travel expenses are fully covered.
