Dear Colleagues and Friends,

Thank you for joining us at the 41st Annual Meeting of our Immunological Society (API) in Kloster Nimbschen. We hope you found the event both stimulating and enjoyable!

This year’s focus, “New Therapies for Immune Disorders”, highlighted advancements in gene and cellular therapies as well as targeted treatment approaches. We were honored to welcome esteemed keynote speakers from Bethesda, Newcastle, London, Barcelona, Munich, Berlin, and Dresden, whose insights enriched our discussions.

We were also impressed by the scientific quality and number of abstract submissions. It was a pleasure to recognize the achievements of our junior API members by awarding six prizes—three each for the best poster and oral presentations. Congratulations once again to all the winners!

Your active participation, scientific contributions, and clinical perspectives truly reflected the API spirit and made this meeting in the heart of Saxony a memorable one.

A special thanks goes to the faculty of the Educational Meeting, our session chairs, and the chairs of the two poster walks—your efforts are deeply appreciated.

We’re already looking forward to the next API Meeting in 2026!

Warm regards,
Catharina Schütz and Min Ae Lee-Kirsch

Prof. Dr. Catharina Schütz & Prof. Dr. Min Ae Lee-Kirsch
