13th Annual Center for Immunology and Immune-based Diseases Retreat 

August 22, 2025

Hyatt Regency Conference Center

Coralville, Iowa

(Note: Look for RSVP and Abstract submissions July 2025)

Welcome

To achieve an integrated and multidisciplinary approach to the study of immunology in its diverse manifestations, the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine has established the Center for Immunology and Immune-based Diseases. 

The Center will coordinate efforts and facilitate interactions among members of the UI biomedical research community in order to advance education, research and clinical applications in immune-related diseases. Read more.

Become a Member!

Welcomed from the greater UI academic community, members will include scientists engaged in basic and applied research, education, and clinical studies of immunology and immune-based diseases, and will thus comprise a diverse group of investigators with a shared interest in immunology in its broadest sense and a collective expertise necessary to advance understanding of the multifaceted roles of the immune system in biology. If you would like to be involved with this interactive and collaborative immunology community, apply to become a member.
