An in-depth understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the ageing process, the immune response in old age, and the role of both processes on the pathophysiology of age-related diseases is crucial for defining strategies and treatments to improve health in old age and thereby developing sustainable future societies. This FEBS Workshop will combine the topics of immunology, metabolism and ageing in a unique way to highlight the intricate interplay of immunological and metabolic functions in the context of ageing and cellular senescence. Our meeting will bring together internationally renowned experts in immunological, metabolic and ageing research and provide ample opportunities for scientific exchange and informal interactions. We aim to connect experienced scientists and young researchers to foster potential collaborations and, hopefully, future careers to contribute to solutions for the biomedical challenges caused by the ongoing demographic shift. The deadline for abstract submission and application is 30 June 2025.
