Manipal Hospital Yelahanka Holds First Immuno‑Transplant Summit in Bengaluru

On June 20, 2024, Manipal Hospital Yelahanka in Bengaluru hosted the inaugural Immuno‑Transplant Summit, bringing together over 200 specialists across immunology, organ transplantation, and pharmacology to discuss integrating patient care pathways.

The conference, organised by the hospital’s Centre for Transplant Sciences, focused on the latest advances in graft tolerance, immune monitoring, and the use of biologics that may reduce rejection rates. Sessions highlighted real‑world case studies from the region, underscored the need for coordinated data sharing, and explored the role of precision medicine in transplant success.

Pre‑conference speakers, including Dr. R. Singh, noted that the summit will establish a unified platform for research and clinical practice, potentially cutting wait times for transplant patients and improving long‑term outcomes. The event is expected to set a benchmark for future collaboration between immunologists and transplant surgeons in India. Source: Google News – Manipal.
