The UK Adhesion Society is excited to invite you to attend our autumn meeting.
We join with the University of Birmingham to promote and showcase cutting edge research into Inflammation Biology.
Plenary speakers will focus on the role of stromal cells, stem cells and lipid mediators in promoting aberrant inflammatory states, and their potential role in resolution of
disease. However, we strongly encourage the submission of abstracts and participation from scientists with interests in all aspects of adhesion biology.
We are encouraging PhD students to share your ideas with leaders in your field with a discounted registration fee.
