This is a course which will take place in Spain, from Friday, 21 March 2025 - Saturday, 22 March 2025. 

*The exact location will be published soon. 

Course Description

This is a compact, one-and-a-half-day course on immunology with a special emphasis on two hot immunology topics and on the design, interpretation and analysis of basic or translational research projects. The course is designed to facilitate problem- and case-oriented learning to enhance the interactions among participants and between participants and the faculty. Lectures will provide the basic knowledge to the course participants. Participants will work in small groups on specific proposals for research projects in clinical and basic immunology.


Three main sessions will be organized:

  • Basic to Hot topic sessions (with 3 different lectures about adaptive or innate immunity)
  • Discussion of a potential research project. Based on an unsolved research question posed by the faculty, the participants will draft a project using immunological investigational techniques (in vitro, in vivo). Via discussion with the faculty, the project will be improved and refined, so the participants will learn how to optimize approach, methods and controls.
  • Immunology speed dating. This session will allow the participants to get together and with the faculty in a more ‘informal’ environment to share knowledge and ideas.

Learning objectives

  • The course will raise the knowledge and skills of young rheumatologists and basic researchers working in the field of rheumatology in immunology.
  • The course will be complimentary to the EULAR online course on rheumatic diseases and the EULAR postgraduate course and consolidates the knowledge in immunology in a more practical and interactive way.
  • The course will foster networking and create bonds between the participants to promote future collaborations.

Certification

After the course, all participants who have successfully completed the course will receive a certificate of attendance on their EULAR School user account. 100% course attendance is required.
