Dear Friends and Colleagues,
I am pleased to announce the First Congress of VITARES, Veterinary Immunotherapy and Translational Research which will take place from 27 February to 1 March 2019 at Castel Romano, Rome.
Public health initiatives such as One Health demonstrate the growing awareness of the fact that animal and human health are strongly interconnected with each other and with the environment. Zoonotic pathogens and Cancer represent a direct hazard to Veterinary and Human Health. This meeting brings together Basic research, Veterinary and Human Medicine Scientists involved in the field of Immunology, Oncology and Education, aiming at creating networks of collaboration. Internationally renowned scientists from Italy and abroad will provide the State of the Art and present their most recent data in a highly stimulating scientific environment.
Topics will range from the importance of Preclinical Models for Basic and Applied Science, Veterinary and Human Oncology and Immunologic therapies side by side and the impact of Environment. Furthermore, a discussion will take place on some of the most current aspects and societal implications of the Translational Medicine.
We are sure that you will enjoy very much this exciting Congress and look forward to meeting you in Rome.
Luigi Aurisicchio
VITARES President
