“The diversity of T cell subsets and functions makes it imperative that they can be identified, characterised, propagated, traced in vivo and their function elucidated effectively. This one day EuroSciCon meeting provided the ideal opportunity to hear both the commercial companies presenting new techniques and academics highlighting their latest findings in this area. Similarly, there were opportunities throughout the day for the audience to interact with the speakers and discuss their results in an informal setting.” Chair- Dr Catherine Derry, Science Communicator
