Session Synopsis:
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) have long been recognized as central mediators of immune tolerance. What distinguishes the current moment in the field is the maturity of science and technology, which now makes it possible to translate decades of discovery into real therapeutic opportunities. With growing momentum in clinical trials and the advent of genetic engineering to enhance Treg stability, specificity, and function, Treg-based therapies are rapidly evolving from concept to clinic—offering new hope for patients with autoimmune diseases and for preventing transplant rejection.
Treg Symposium 2025 offers a timely and focused platform to explore these advances. By bringing together leading experts from both academia and industry, the symposium fosters the kind of interdisciplinary dialogue essential for addressing the scientific, clinical, and manufacturing challenges of Treg therapy. Topics will span from cutting-edge tools for understanding Treg biology and discovering new therapeutic opportunities, to clinical-stage developments of ex vivo Treg therapies and emerging strategies for in vivo Treg modulation.
