On the margins of the 2024 World Sepsis Day, the Global Sepsis Alliance and the European Sepsis Alliance are joining the Sepsis Stiftung in convening an international symposium on the role of the immune system in the fight against sepsis. The event is also supported by the Max Planck Institute for Infection Biology, the Berliner Medizinische Gesellschaft, and the Germany Recognizes Sepsis campaign.
The international symposium will focus on the critical importance of the immune system in effective prevention and treatment of sepsis. Throughout two main sessions of the symposium – vaccination and immunomodulation – 8 globally renowned speakers will share their perspectives and recommendations on the potential of vaccination for sepsis prevention, lessons learned for vaccine development, how to combat distorted medical information in the digital age, personalized immunotherapy in for septic patients, and much more.
We are especially proud to announce that the symposium is under the patronage of Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General WHO, Prof. Dr. Karl Lauterbach, Federal Minister of Health, Germany, and Kai Wegner, The Governing Mayor of Berlin, Germany.
