Imagine Life Without Disease

For more than 35 years, La Jolla Institute for Immunology has pursued a singular mission: to understand the immune system so deeply that we can harness its power to prevent, treat and ultimately cure human disease. The immune system touches nearly every organ and influences virtually every aspect of human health. From cancer to chronic infection, from autoimmune disorders to emerging viruses, our scientists explore the most fundamental questions in immunology. This lecture will provide an overview of our groundbreaking research and the critical role immunology plays in shaping the future of medicine.
