Path to Tolerance -symposium will take place December 2-3, 2024 in Vancouver, Canada.
The first day of the symposium will explore and celebrate the achievements of the seven-year-long Genome Canada Transplant Consortium $10+M project “Precision Medicine CanPREVENT Antibody-Mediated Rejection and Premature Kidney Transplant Loss”, known as CanPrev for short, which started in 2017 and will come to an end in spring 2025. The second symposium day will be forward looking, introducing the newly launched Genome Canada $5.8M project “Canadian Prospective Epitope Compatibility for Transplants” – CanProspECT for short. This project was announced in May 2024, will run for three years, until spring 2027, and will be paving the way for the next frontier of precision transplantation – Tolerance.
Mark your calendars, and follow our website announcements and social media! Symposium attendance for in-person participation will be free of charge, and by invitation-only. Invitations will be rolling out in the coming days. Interested general public – students, patients, interested researchers from other fields – can also participate, via an online platform.
