This congress convenes every three years and brings together the world's leading experts in developmental and evolutionary immunology. This congress serves to foster collaborations and allows young investigators and students to meet some of the most renowned experts in the field. The congress will include topics ranging from innate immunity, adaptive immunity and evolution all the way to environmental and ecological immunology. The most significant developments presented at the congress will be published by Elsevier in the journal Developmental and Comparative Immunology.
