Dear Colleagues,
I am delighted to welcome you all to the 1st International Congress on Controversies in Allergology and Immunology which will take place in the beautiful coastal town of Sorrento, Italy on 29 April – 1 May, 2010.
Our intention is to generate great discussions and ideas during this three day meeting in the facilities of the Hilton Sorrento Palace Hotel. We aim to focus on issues that will be of interest to clinical immunologist and allergologists, as well as general physicians working in the field. Our program will give you an up-to-date comprehensive overview by world experts in the field of Allergology and Immunology whilst including some controversial topics.
The congress will concentrate on several hot topics that will be incorporated in 6 main sessions. These include:
• Can Allergic Disease be prevented?
• Novel Immunomodulatory approach to allergy and autoimmune disease
• Asthma: Where are we and where are we going?
• Division of labor amongst T cell subsets: From Bench to Bedside.
• Practicum on Immunodeficiency.
• Skin as a target for allergic disease.
• Food allergy
• Eosinophil disorders
In addition to the Scientific Program this Congress will give you an opportunity to interact with colleagues in the Mediterranean sunshine.
I look forward to seeing you there.
Best Wishes,
Prof. A. Etzioni
