16th TNF Superfamily meeting will be held from 17-21st of April 2017. As in all previous meetings there will be an exciting scientific program that will cover all aspects of this fascinating family: the biology, the biochemistry, the clinical applications and pharmaceutical perspectives.
There will be a large percentage of talks set aside for selection from abstracts so that the most exciting and emerging areas can be presented at the meeting. And there will also be short talks set aside for junior scientists.
Singapore is a lively city to visit with many cultural diversions and innumerable and diverse eating opportunities. The Organising Committee will capitalise on this to develop a social program that will enhance the scientific program giving plenty of time for attendees to interact and exchange ideas and share the excitement emanating from this area in an informal setting.
Lastly, Singapore really is a world class tourist destination and travel hub and in easy reach of many other beautiful South East Asian locations.
