We hope you and your family are safe and healthy. Out of an abundance of caution and due to the continued unpredictability surrounding the pandemic, we have decided to move the 2022 Henry Kunkel Society (HKS) meeting to a virtual platform. While we are disappointed to make this announcement, we are excited to share that participation in this meeting will be free of charge.

The theme of this meeting is “Innate Immunity: from basic biology to human disease" and it is the 29th annual meeting of the HKS and the 6th in partnership with Journal of Experimental Medicine. This exciting meeting is chaired by Dusan Bogunovic, from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in NY and will take place on April 7-9, 2022.

We are proud to share our incredible lineup of speakers in addition to the Kunkel Memorial Lecture to be delivered by Federica Sallusto, from the Institute for Research in Biomedicine in Bellinzona and the ETH Zürich, Switzerland:
