Welcome from the EFIS President

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

As President of the European Federation of Immunological Societies (EFIS),it is my pleasure to extend this invitation to you to join us in Amsterdam inSeptember 2018 at the Fifth European Congress of Immunology (ECI 2018).Held every three years and attracting on average nearly 4.200 delegates since 2006, the ECI isnow regarded as a premier event on the international immunology calendar. The most recentECI 2015 in Vienna was a telling example of the success that the congress now enjoys. And ECI2018 in Amsterdam promises to continue this tradition by staging a truly memorable scientific eventfor all attending!

EFIS, together with our local host, the Dutch Society for Immunology (NVVI), will work to ensure a stimulating three days during which you as a sponsor can interact with a wide range of participants, laboratory and practicing clinical scientists alike. Leading international medical andbiomedical experts, as well as promising young professionals, will interactively explore the mostrecent advances in the fields of innate immunity, adaptive immunity, diseases of the immune system and immune interventions.

Inspired by one of Amsterdam’s most characteristic features, our colleagues of the NVVI haveaptly given ECI 2018 the theme of “Building Bridges”. And, indeed, it is their and our pledge toguarantee a setting that is conducive to building as many bridges as possible: to converge basic,translational and clinical science, to stimulate interaction among younger researchers and established immunologists, and, to foster exchange between academia and industry. The European immunology community has only to gain from your commitment to this shared effort.

ECI 2018 is beginning to take shape and is committed to creating valuable networking optionsfor our sponsors. With the company exhibition area at the heart of the venue and a variety ofsponsorship options available, we are committed to making ECI 2018 memorable, both scientifically and economically. I warmly encourage you to mark your calendars and to join us inAmsterdam to help make ECI 2018 a resounding and rewarding success.

Sincerely,

René van Lier, President, EFIS

Welcome Message from the ECI 2018 Congress President

Dear colleague,

It is with great pleasure that we welcome you on behalf of the European

Federation of Immunological Societies and the Dutch Society of

Immunology (NVVI) to the 5th European Congress of Immunology (ECI) in

Amsterdam from September 2-5, 2018.

The previous meeting of ECI in Vienna in 2015 was a great success and contained a good

company exhibition and strong networking possibilities. We would now like to draw your attention

to ECI 2018 and the opportunity to reach a highly interesting target audience for your products,

comprising both biomedical scientists and medical clinicians.

With the 5th ECI in 2018 we will build an European village of immunology in Amsterdam. Basic and

clinical researchers from academia and industry can dive into immunology, discuss science and

form new collaborations. The 5th ECI will cover all fields of modern immunology, ranging from

innate memory and tissue specific regulation of T/B cell differentiation to unsupervised analyses

of big data for evaluation of immunomodulatory biologicals. The special focus of the 5th ECI will

be ‘Building Bridges’. The Dutch take pride in being expert bridge builders, physically to handle

water, but also figuratively to connect people and facilitate mutual goals. We aim to show you

that this is true.

ECI 2018 will bring together:

• researchers working in the field of fundamental and applied immunology, biomedical

sciences, cell biology and chemistry.

• clinical chemists and medical immunologists working in the field of clinical diagnostics.

• clinicians working in the field of immune-mediated diseases and/or immunomodulatory

therapies.

ECI 2018 is an attractive congress for medical specialists treating patients, as immunology has

become an essential part in modern clinical medicine, diagnosis and patient care. We offer

continuing medical education (CME) credits to all delegates in accordance with UEMS – EACCME

regulations. In the meeting we will discuss the pathogenesis of auto immune and inflammatory

diseases and cancer and the etiology of primary and secondary immunodeficiency diseases.

Novel forms of clinical immune interventions and diagnostics in the field of vaccination,

autoimmunity, allergy, immunodeficiency and cancer will be given a prominent place, since their

societal benefits are a good example of the potent applicability of our scientific discipline. We

will specifically dedicate sessions to identify new discoveries in fundamental immunology that

hold diagnostic and therapeutic promise.

Special sessions will highlight technological innovations in biomedical

research (e.g. cellular phenotyping and separation; antibody technologies;

fluorescent tracing; (sub)cellular imaging and quantification techniques;

proteomic, metabolomic and genetic profiling; animal models and

mutagenesis; DNA/RNA targeting and silencing technologies; etc.). This will

be offered in close cooperation with partners from industry. Here, we will

connect to interdisciplinary fields, like big data management, systems biology and

multidimensional systems imaging. There will be ample space for company-sponsored symposia

allowing to feature specific aspects of immunology.

Our total program offers 150+ talks by invited speakers, with state-of-the art presentations by top

of the bill immunologists and clinicians. More than 400 oral presentations will be selected from

submitted abstracts. We will have poster sessions and guided poster walks that enable exchange

of data and networking and communication throughout the European immunology community.

As you may know of previous years, we offer a full range of sponsorship options to allow your

company to optimally participate in ECI 2018. We will make sure that your company will fully

benefit from all networking options. For this goal, we made the company exhibition area the heart

of the venue. It is centrally localized, in the midst of lecture halls, poster areas and walkways. In

this way, we can ensure that networking options with Europe’s leading international medical and

biomedical professionals are optimal for you. Should you have specific wishes or questions, please

feel free to discuss them with us. ECI 2018 is all about building bridges indeed.

We look forward to your response and the opportunity to further discuss the exact way in which

you want to be involved in our attractive meeting. We will do our best to make the 5th ECI a most

memorable scientific and economical event for you. We much look forward to hosting you in

Amsterdam in September 2016!

Yours sincerely,

The 5th ECI will cover all fields of modern immunology, ranging from innatememory and tissue specific regulation of T and B cell differentiation to unsupervised analyses of big data for diagnostics and combinational immunomodulatory biologicals.

In the meeting we will specifically dedicate sessions to identify new discoveries in fundamentalimmunology that hold diagnostic and therapeutic promise and to tackle challenges that arise from connecting fundamental and translational science. We will bring in scientists from interdisciplinary fields, like data management, systems biology and multidimensional systems imaging to form beachheads for novel directions of immunological research and optimised evaluations of clinical trials.

With the 5th ECI we attempt to build an European village of immunology in Amsterdam. Here basicand clinical researchers can dive into immunology, discuss science and form new collaborations without feeling submerged by the size of the meeting. Our program offers 150+talks by invited speakers, with exemplary keynote lectures and state-of-the field presentations bytop of the bill immunologists. The group of invited speakers contains not only established world-leading scientists in basic and translational immunology, but also front-runners in clinical immunomodulatory therapies and up-and-coming scientists, who are changing current immunological concepts through novel scientific approaches. To give ample exposure to excitingnew data from the whole immunological society, more than 400 oral presentations will be selectedfrom submitted abstracts. We aim to have poster sessions and guided poster walks that will allowstrong exposure of all research and stimulate discussions and networking. A number of posters willbe selected for specific airing and data discussion via electronic poster boards. Special attentionwill be devoted to the education of our young scientists and students. To this end a bright sparkssession for young scientists will be organized. In addition, the 5th ECI will feature a number of satellite meetings dealing with related topics.

All reasonable care will be taken to avoid any topic overlapping between industry sponsored

symposia. However, the ECI does not accept liability for any deviation from this procedure or the

consequences which might arise from this, such as low attendance.

Catering:

Lunch bags have to be provided at the industry sponsored lunch symposia. Expenses for the lunch

bags are not included in the symposium fee. The catering has to be ordered from the official

caterer.

Symposia & Progress in Technology Sessions – General Terms & Conditions

Advertising & Promotion:

The ECI will publish confirmed industry sponsored symposia on the ECI

website mentioning only the date and time of each industry sponsored

symposium – as soon as the details are submitted and finalised, these can

also be published on the website. The final program will also contain all

details submitted by the company until the appropriate deadline (see

deadlines). Any extension (if possible) of the published deadlines may only

be granted under special circumstances.

As the ECI 2018 attends to apply for CME accreditation of its meeting by the European Union of

Medical Specialists (UEMS), all mentions of the sponsor names and / or logos, as well as all mentions

of the specific type of support (e.g. “sponsored by an unconditional grant by…”) on the conference

website and in all printed matters will have to comply with the current UEMS regulations. Sponsors

cannot enforce any type of display or recognition on either website or any printed matter which

would conflict with the UEMS rules and therefore jeopardize the accreditation.

All marketing activities and promotional material relating to this activity must be approved by the

ECI Organizing Secretariat before distribution in print or online. For those materials sponsors may

use the official ECI logo.

During the ECI, the distribution of promotional material for the industry sponsored symposium is

only allowed on the booth. The placement of a signage outside the industry sponsored symposium

room is only permitted half an hour before the start of the symposium. Advertising of any other

kind is strictly forbidden.

CME Accreditation:

Industry sponsored symposia are not considered to be part of the official program and will not be

considered for CME points. According to EACCME, sponsored sessions cannot apply for CME

accreditation. Therefore any application for CME points from the sponsors’ side for industry

sponsored symposia is strictly forbidden.

Presentation Quality Standards:

Industry sponsored symposia should be of an educational nature and must include a formal

presentation or procedural instruction. The content of the proposed program should

demonstrate scientific rigour and objectivity; commercial references should be avoided unless

necessary. A balanced presentation of the topic should be given in every industry sponsored

symposia.
