The meeting „Tumor Immunology meets Oncology (TIMO)“ has established itself as an outstanding platform for exchange between scientists, clinicians and junior staff and as one of the leading European conferences in the field of tumor immunology. From 20-22 April 2023, the meeting will happen for the 17th time at the Steintor Varieté Halle (Saale).

The symposium takes place over three days and begins with a workshop that enables young scientists to present their own data in a short lecture. The latest methods and techniques in the field of tumor treatment will also be presented. The accompanying poster exhibition facilitates discussion of further projects and the establishment of new cooperations. Following the workshop, we will award prizes for the three best lectures and posters. The scientific program will be rounded off with a networking evening on Friday allowing the discussion of projects and experiments in a relaxed atmosphere.

On the following two days, the established and renowned scientists will have their say. An overview:
