Invitation Letter

On behalf of the International Society of Neuroimmunology (ISNI), we are pleased to invite you to participate in the Tenth ISNI Congress, which will be held in Barcelona, Spain, from October 26-30, 2010.

The field of Neuroimmunology is expanding because of the growing interest in inflammation for many neurological diseases, the new immunotherapies and biomarkers available or being developed and the growth of new brain infections related with globalization or with the use of new immunotherapies. Thus, we are in the presence of an explosion of knowledge about the mechanisms of brain inflammation as well as new opportunities for intervening in neurological diseases.

The 10th ISNI Congress will be an excellent opportunity to realize the changes in the field and to envision new perspectives for basic and clinical research.
The local Organising Committee and the International Advisory Board are planning to set up a program containing lectures, workshops and technical demonstrations with a broad scope and the highest quality, focusing on new and promising technologies or providing feed-back from clinical observations to the lab and back. In addition, specific sessions and fellowships will be available in order to encourage the participation of young researchers.

The city of Barcelona is one of the loveliest cities in the world and it is ready to welcome ISNI attendees. The venue, Fira de Barcelona, combines a modern convention center surrounded by the romantic atmosphere of the Montjuic hill, which is very close to the center of the city. Flight connections to Barcelona international airport should provide easy connections and the many hotels, restaurants and places to visit in the city are going to make this event a wonderful experience.

We look forward to seeing you in Barcelona in 2010!
