We are pleased to announce the fifth Cold Spring Harbor meeting on Gene Expression & Signaling in the Immune System, which will begin on Wednesday evening, April 21 and end at noon on Sunday, April 25, 2010. We are looking forward to a broad-based meeting, and abstracts are welcomed on all scientific topics related to immune system gene expression and signaling. In addition to a strong focus on lymphocyte development and adaptive immunity, this year's meeting will also emphasize the molecular regulation of innate immune responses. Topics:
*Stem cells and cell fate decisions
*Regulation of immune cell development
*Chromatin structure and epigenetic regulation
*Antigen receptor gene assembly and modification
*Signal transduction in immune cells
*Regulation of lymphocyte function
*Innate immunity
