Clinical CGT Immune Monitoring and Immunobiology Workshop – ISCT 2026 Dublin

As cell and gene therapies (CGT) continue to advance, standardizing immune monitoring is critical to ensure consistent patient outcomes and generate comparable data across clinical sites. The Clinical CGT Immune Monitoring and Immunobiology Workshop is a one-day, expert-led program designed for clinicians, scientists, process development associates, laboratory directors, and medical students focused on advancing CGT patient care.

  • Track 1 – Technical & Translational Focus: Built for process development and translational scientists. Explore fit-for-purpose assay selection, biomarker integration, workflow optimization, and practical strategies to implement standardized immune monitoring across research and clinical settings.
  • Track 2 – Clinical Focus:  Designed for clinicians and clinical researchers. Learn novel immune monitoring strategies, implement robust biomarkers to support patient outcome prediction and follow-up, and translate immune data into actionable clinical decision-making.

Faculty will guide participants through discussions, case studies, and real-world examples, providing practical knowledge to implement and optimize immune monitoring strategies that enhance patient outcomes after CGT administration.


Special bundle pricing for this course is available with ISCT 2026 registration.
