NDI3 2026

NDI3 2026
A new edition of New Developments in Immunology, Inflammation & Infection (NDI3), organized by PhD students, will take place on November 5, 2026.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to everyone who participated in the 47th Northern Germany Meeting on Infection, Immunology & Inflammation, held on October 8, 2025, at the Research Center Borstel Manor House.
NDI3 brings together around 125 researchers from across Northern Germany and welcomes internationally recognized guest speakers. The 2025 edition fostered a vibrant exchange of ideas across the fields of infection biology, immunology, and inflammation research. Participants enjoyed inspiring keynote lectures by Maximiliano Gutierrez (Francis Crick Institute), Susanne Häußler (HZI), Christian Karsten (ISEF, UKSH), Silke Meiners (CAU/FZB), and Olivier Neyrolles (IPBS), alongside engaging scientific talks, poster presentations, and interactive educational sessions delivered by early-career researchers representing more than ten research institutions from Northern Germany and beyond.
We are deeply grateful to all speakers, participants, and sponsors whose enthusiasm, support, and collaboration made this meeting possible. We would also like to express our special thanks to CSSB and FZB for their generous support.
As PhD students, it is both a privilege and a pleasure to organize this meeting. It is a rewarding experience that highlights the importance of scientific exchange, collaboration, and curiosity in advancing research in infection, immunology, and inflammation. Thank you for helping make the 2025 NDI3 meeting such a great success.
Building on the success of the 2025 edition, the new NDI3 PhD student organizing committee is delighted to announce the 48th NDI3 Meeting, which will be held on November 5, 2026. We look forward to welcoming you for another inspiring day of scientific discussion, networking, and collaboration.
