The 3rd Immuno-Metabolic Mechanisms of Atherosclerosis Conference

Start: Sunday 1st May 2022 - End: Wednesday 4th May 2022 Venue:  


Scientific Chairs Christoph Binder (Medical University of Vienna), Ziad Mallat (University of Cambridge) & Eicke Latz (University of Bonn) are coming together once again to host the 3rd Immuno-Metabolic Mechanisms of Atherosclerosis Conference. The meeting will be taking place in person from 01-04 May 2022 at the Fiesta Americana Tulkal Riviera Maya, Mexico.

Building on the success of the previous meetings, the main goal of this meeting is to provide attendees with a comprehensive overview of current research on atherosclerosis with a focus on the latest and most exciting developments in the immuno-metabolic mechanisms that govern disease initiation and progression. There is little doubt that the next most exciting therapy to combat cardiovascular disease will be based on targeting biological pathways that will have been discussed during this conference.

Seven sessions are planned and will highlight the following major research areas:

• - Cellular vessel wall and plaque diversity
• - Lipids and lipoproteins in inflammation
• - Cellular lipid metabolism and immunity
• - Innate immunity, neutrophil and macrophage biology
• - Adaptive immune mechanisms
• - Immunometabolism and leukocytes
• - Neuroimmune signaling
• - Systems analyses
• - Human translational studies and clinical trials
