Complete guideFull MedicMess editorial briefing

This two-day Crick-hosted symposium is aimed at researchers working in immunology and immune-mediated disease across London and beyond. The programme is built around nineteen invited speaker talks, with keynote presentations from Bana Jabri of Institut Imagine and Chris Buckley of the Kennedy Institute. The source page says submitted abstracts will be used to select short talks, and poster sessions run on both days, so early-career researchers have a clear route to present work as either an oral short talk or poster. The abstract deadline has been extended to 22 July 2026. Eventbrite shows tickets on sale until 6 September 2026, an in-person format at the Francis Crick Institute, and an aggregate ticket range of GBP 60-150; the public page does not expose named trainee or student ticket categories. No CPD accreditation or publication outcome is stated. The venue is beside King's Cross and St Pancras at 1 Midland Road, London NW1 1AT.
