The 2nd Doherty Institute & Partners-IFReC Immunology Symposium, the second joint symposium on immunology between Osaka University and its Global Knowledge Partner, the University of Melbourne, was held on 8 February 2024 at Taniguchi Memorial Auditorium on the Suita Campus of Osaka University.

 

The symposium was held with the support of the 2023 Osaka-Melbourne Joint Research Workshops Fund to build and strengthen collaborative relationships in immunology based on the strategic partnership agreement between the University of Melbourne and Osaka University.

 

Five researchers from Osaka University and six from the University of Melbourne, mainly principal investigators, presented their cutting-edge research on immunology. More than 80 people, including young researchers, attended the symposium and had lively discussions. It is expected that international joint research in immunology will be promoted between the two organizations and that next-generation researchers will be trained through international joint research
