The NDI3 is a scientific conference standing for New Developments in Immunology, Inflammation and Infection. This annual event takes place at the Research Center Borstel located in close proximity to Hamburg. It is organized by motivated PhD students who aim to bring together young and ambitious scientists to share their research and have fruitful discussions. The one-day conference is aimed at PhD students and postdoctoral research fellows interested in immunology, inflammation and infection. These topics will be combined in a modern agenda including presentations by international keynote speakers, talk and poster sessions, as well as an entertainment and prizing part.

Prof. Dr. Igor Kramnik
Boston University, Boston, United States
Prof. Dr. Igor Kramnik is an expert in mouse genetics. His lab is interested in mechanisms mediating susceptibility to - and why the lung is vulnerable to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. His group identified the sst1 locus responsible for necrotizing lung granuloma and described Ipr1 activation and death of macrophage. Furthermore, his group study epithelial cells in tuberculosis infection in order to develop interventions to restore epithelial function.

Prof. Dr. Ari Waisman
Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz, Mainz, Germany
Prof. Dr. Ari Waisman studied biology in Israel and completed his PhD on immuno-biology in Rehovot, Israel. As Post-Doctoral fellow he worked in Immunology in Israel and Germany and started in 2001 as Independent Group Leader at the University of Cologne, Germany. In 2005, he was appointed Professor of Immunology in the Medical Department, University Medical Center of the Johannes Gutenberg-University (JGU) in Mainz. Since 2011 Prof. Dr. Ari Waisman is Director of the Institute for Molecular Medicine at the University Medical Center of the JGU, Mainz. He focuses especially on studying the mechanisms leading to the development of autoimmune diseases. Mainly the mechanisms leading to the induction and development of multiple sclerosis. With his work he made crucial contributions to improve our understanding of the mechanisms of autoimmune diseases and furthermore to the development of modern anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory therapies.
