Description
The Immunobiology and Infection Subgroup focuses on modelling applied to the various aspects of immunity and immune responses, including host-pathogen interactions. Our subgroup’s aim is to unite mathematical biologists, clinicians, and wet lab researchers working on within-host infectious disease dynamics, host immune responses, causes and effects of inflammation, disease progression and outcome, integration of experimental and clinical data into models, and model-driven experimental design to advance our understanding of the immune system. In our 2026 minisymposium, we are highlighting some of the excellent research in our subgroup focused on a variety of immune-related applications, from new methods to novel applications of models.
