SUMMARY:Dr. E. Donnall Thomas Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Dr. E. Donnall Thomas and his colleagues discovered a way to treat advanced leukemia by eradicating malignant white blood cells in the bone marrow using high doses of chemotherapy and radiation\, and then replacing them with healthy donor cells. This revolutionary approach was the first definitive and reproducible example of the human immune system’s potential to eliminate cancer\, and it earned Thomas a Nobel Prize in 1990. Today\, cell-based therapies have become a standard of care for many patients with cancer and other diseases. \nRegistration for this event will open in July 2026.

SUMMARY:Immunology to Change Lives
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Immunology To Change Lives on Tuesday\, November 17\, 2026! Save the date and check back soon for more information about this event. \nAt BRI\, our vision of a healthy immune system for everyone drives us forward. From studying genes to understand why some people are more at risk for diseases of the immune system\, to exploring therapies that delay the onset of disease\, our research fuels groundbreaking discoveries that impact the real people living with these conditions. We take what we learn in the lab and integrate it into clinical care. Just as importantly\, we take the challenging questions and lived experiences from patients and clinicians and bring them back into the lab. This cycle — where research shapes care\, and care inspires new research – moves forward our mission of advancing the science to predict\, prevent\, reverse and cure diseases of the immune system.
