About the event

INFLAMMA IX

The Brazilian Society of Inflammation (SBIn) and the Center for Research in Inflammatory Diseases (CRID) are pleased to announce the 9th International Symposium on Inflammatory Diseases – INFLAMMA IX. The symposium has been planned to bring together renowned researchers focused on unraveling the complexities of inflammation and its implications in translational medicine.

We aim to stimulate enriching debates and foster revolutionary ideas on topics such as Molecular Mechanisms, Innovative Diagnostics, and Therapeutic Strategies for autoinflammatory diseases, autoimmune conditions, cancer, and more.

With oral presentations and poster sessions, young scientists and renowned researchers will exchange valuable information. Come be a part of INFLAMMA IX!
