Benaroya Research Institute's third annual immunology symposium, New Horizons in Immunity and Disease, took place on Tuesday, May 5, 2026. Due to strong interest and enthusiastic support from the immunology community, we relocated this year’s event to Bell Harbor International Conference Center in Seattle, a larger venue that better accommodated our growing audience.
Once again, we brought together leading voices from the local and national immunology research community for a day of collaboration, discovery, discussion and connection. Building on two years of full houses, dynamic presentations, and meaningful dialogue, this year’s symposium continued that momentum.
Please contact BRI's marketing and communications team via email with any questions.
We look forward to next year's event! Please stay tuned for more information.
