📢 The 2nd Taiwan–Harvard–KAIST Immunology Joint Symposium – Registration Now Open!
Metabolism and immunology are rapidly reshaping the future of medicine. The 2nd Taiwan–Harvard–KAIST Immunology Joint Symposium will take place from May 15 to May 16, 2026, at Linkou Chang Gung Memorial Hospital and National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University.
This prestigious symposium brings together leading experts from Taiwan, Harvard Medical School, and the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). Covering topics from fundamental mechanisms to clinical translation, the meeting will provide deep insights into how metabolism and immunology are driving precision medicine and next-generation therapeutic strategies. It is a must-attend event for both academic and clinical communities.
✨ May 15 | Linkou Chang Gung Session ✨
We are honored to invite two distinguished experts from Harvard to share their groundbreaking contributions to immunology:
❄️ Prof. Vijay Kuchroo
A world-renowned immunologist and a pioneer in the discovery of Th17 cells and the immune checkpoint TIM-3. His groundbreaking work on T cell regulation and autoimmune disease mechanisms has profoundly advanced our understanding of cancer immunology and multiple sclerosis.
❄️ Dr. Ramnik Xavier
A leading authority in gut immunology and the microbiome. His research focuses on host–microbe interactions, revealing how microbial communities shape the immune system and influence disease susceptibility, particularly in inflammatory bowel disease.
In addition, outstanding researchers from Harvard, KAIST, and Taiwan will present the latest advances and emerging trends in metabolism and immunology.
