Dear Colleagues and Friends,

It is with great pleasure that we welcome you on behalf of the Turkish Society of Immunology (TSI) to the International Molecular Immunology & Immunogenetics Congress IV (MIMIC IV) in the mountainside beautiful city of Bursa in Turkey from April 27-29, 2019.

Held every alternating year since 2012, MIMIC IV promises to continue this tradition by staging a truly memorable scientific event for all non-clinical and clinical attendees. MIMIC IV will cover all fields of modern immunology, including innate, memory and regulation of T and B cells. Recent trends and emerging topics on molecular and applied immunology as well as immunogenetics will be discussed. As always, MIMIC Organizers put special effort to unite internationally renowned scientists with new faculty and young researchers in a friendly and relaxed environment.  Aiming to foster the exchange of ideas along with facilitating collaborations in this MIMIC IV we invite an exceptional group of scientists to discuss their findings and discoveries. We believe that MIMIC IV will be an excellent platform to facilitate this mutual goal while tackling challenges that arise from connecting fundamental and translational science.

This year, the organizing committee has made special efforts to support early-stage scientists/researchers via several grants and awards covering registration, accommodation, and part of travel expenses. Therefore, young researchers are particularly encouraged to participate in this vibrant and exciting congress.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Bursa for this unique and stimulating event.

Sincerely,

Prof. H. Barbaros ORAL
Congress President
