Members of the Molecular Pathology Lab at the University of Tartu were invited to present their research at this year\u2019s Estonian Society of Immunology and Allergology (EIAS) Autumn Conference. Held at the scenic Ugala Theater in Viljandi, the event brought together professionals from the scientific and medical fields, allowing for discussions about the latest advancements in immunology that are happening in Estonia.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Research Presentations by Our Team<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our lab contributed to the event with five\u00a0presentations, each highlighting a unique area of research:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sandra Meisalu:<\/strong> \u201cClinical and Immunological Characterization of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Endotypes\u201d<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sandra\u2019s presentation shed light on the clinical and immune-related markers characteristic of three lupus endotypes, highlighting the need for personalized treatment approaches.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Martti Vanker:<\/strong> \u201cAutoantibodies Against Cytokines in the Population\u201d<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Martti\u2019s talk focused on the prevalence of certain cytokine-targeting autoantibodies,\u00a0looking into their association with other factors such as age and sex and gene data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elise Helena Armulik:<\/strong> \u201cThe Effects of Inflammatory Pathways on the Development of Thymocytes\u201d<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elise explored how inflammation pathways affect thymocyte development in mice embryos, offering insights into immune system regulation and potential therapeutic targets.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tuuliki Pomerants:<\/strong> \u201cThe Challenges and Opportunities of Spectral Flow Cytometry\u201d<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tuuliki discussed the benefits and complexities of spectral flow cytometry, in developing a panel that allows to immunophenotype various human cells\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gerli Rukis:<\/strong> \u201cExploring Resistance to COVID-19\u201d<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gerli\u2019s presentation highlighted key findings on resistance to COVID-19, contributing to the global understanding of immune responses to the virus.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We extend our heartfelt thanks to the organizers and fellow presenters for making the EIAS Autumn Conference a success. Events like these have an important role of bridging the gap and allowing for collaboration between the scientific community with the medical community as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we continue advancing our work, including through the SysAge project, we look forward to future opportunities where we can contribute our research to the understanding of immunology and ageing.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
