At BRI, we know that progress against one immune system disease is progress against them all. From studying genes to understand why some people are at higher risk for diseases of the immune system, to exploring therapies that delay the onset of disease, our research fuels groundbreaking discoveries that impact the real people living with these conditions. We take what we learn in the lab and integrate it into clinical care. Just as importantly, we take the challenging questions and lived experiences from patients and bring them back into the lab. By studying every step on the path to disease, we move closer to uncovering ways to bring people back to health, achieving our mission of a healthy immune system for all. Research at BRI is deeply interconnected, creating detailed pictures of the immune system in health and disease, to move forward our mission of advancing the science to predict, prevent, reverse and cure diseases of the immune system.
We invite you to join us at Immunology To Change Lives on Tuesday, November 17, 2026, where you’ll have the opportunity to hear firsthand about the impact our innovative research has on patients and clinical care, learn more about advances led by our scientists, and discover how we’re using immunology to change lives. The evening will include ample time for audience Q&A with our investigators; bites and beverages will be served.
