Course Director: Dr Reem Elfeky, Consultant in Paediatric Immunology, GOSH
This course aims to shed light on inborn errors of immunity (IEI) associated with immune dysregulation. These are a group of diseases with clinical phenotypes mainly caused by immune-mediated pathology and less prominent pathology from severe, recurrent, or unusual infections.
International immunology experts from Europe and the United States will come together to deliver their talks, share their research work and experience in managing patients with IEI associated with immune dysregulation.
The course will discuss similarities and differences between IEI associated with immune dysregulation. The course will explore the pathway approach from mechanism to treatment of immune dysregulation.
During the event, there will be a dedicated session on the role of haematopoietic stem cell transplant in the era of targeted therapies for immune dysregulation.
Learning objectives:
- Understanding different pathways involved in immune dysregulation.
- How to use the knowledge for clinical care?
- Role of HSCT in the context of targeted therapy.
Who should attend?
Immunology consultants (paediatrics/adults), immunology trainees and immunology nurse specialists.
