This event can be attended in person or online – for those attending in person there will also be a small reception event following the talk until 6pm – please confirm your in person attendance via this registration form: https://forms.office.com/e/3Za4PKKKTkadvise
Talk Description:
Dr Naftali Kaminski’s talk will present how the implementation of single-cell technologies and the discovery of previously undefined cell populations and interactions has affected the understanding of human pulmonary fibrosis, from initiation through progression and potential for reversal.
This will include a discussion of lung resident populations, fibrotic niches, inflammatory cell repertoires, and specific novel molecular targets, novel AI tools for modelling of cellular events during progression, as well as potential therapeutics.
During the seminar, if you are attending online, it will be important to:
1. Mute your microphone
2. Turn off the camera
Questions will be taken from those attending in person but if you would like to send a question through before the event please do send to admin.mtwc@imperial.ac.uk
