16th World Congress on Inflammation - WCI 2024

Québec City Convention Centre

Welcome

We have the pleasure to invite you to attend the WCI2024 that will take place in Québec City.

The theme of this meeting is: Inflammation in Health & Disease: A Balancing Act.
Highlighted themes include: bones and skin, immunometabolism, infectious diseases, lungs, microbiota, mucosal inflammation, neuro-inflammation, pain, resolution of inflammation, trained immunity, and much more!

The Congress will bring together researchers, clinicians, industry representatives, advocacy groups, and decision-makers across the field of inflammation. WCI2024 will include latest developments in basic, translational and clinical research on inflammation, including cell biology, signalling, genetic, inflammatory/autoimmune diseases, new biomarkers and new therapeutic approaches for human diseases.

The biennial WCI Congress, which will bring together a number of Scientific Societies within the International Association of Inflammation Societies and other Scientific Societies who attend the Congress, will represent a key opportunity to share knowledge across borders and professional disciplines as we work towards a common goal of improving the understanding and therapeutic control of inflammatory diseases. The congress will enhance the international community’s knowledge base and will provide new opportunities for international collaboration.

Québec City is the only fortified city in North America and the oldest city on the continent north of the Mexican border. Founded in 1608, the city is famous for its European character and magnificent landscapes, which make it a highly valued and internationally recognized tourist destination. Québec City also proudly appears on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. We look forward to welcome you for WCI2024 in the beautiful city of Quebec!
