LC2025 at WashU Medicine
September 3-5, 2025

As in the previous years, we wish to make LC2025 an event that allows ample interactions
between the leaders in the field and young researchers, as well as between researchers and industry. We are doing our best to ensure that LC2025 will again be a very fruitful scientific meeting, and that it will remain the major international convention in the field of LCs research.

Despite its focus on LCs, the workshop will cover a whole spectrum of topics on LCs, DCs and related myeloid cells, including: ontogeny and differentiation, tissue homeostasis and tolerance, interaction with microbiota and pathogens, cutaneous immunity, and cancer.

We are looking forward to your participation and welcome you to this exciting meeting.
