The first joint symposium on immunology between IFReC, KAIST, and Yonsei University, titled "The 1st KAIST/Yonsei University-IFReC Joint Symposium - Bridging Immunology for the New Frontiers," was held at the University of Osaka on Friday, 16 May 2025. This inaugural event marked a significant step forward in academic collaboration, following the signing of exchange agreements between IFReC and KAIST, as well as between the University of Osaka and Yonsei University.

The symposium featured presentations on cutting-edge immunology research by nine IFReC researchers and nine researchers from KAIST and Yonsei University. Additionally, nine early-career researchers from IFReC showcased their latest work through poster presentations at the Taniguchi Memorial Hall. Over 90 participants attended the symposium and engaged in lively discussions on the latest findings and technological advancements.

This collaboration is expected to further promote international joint research in immunology and foster deeper exchanges among researchers and students from KAIST, Yonsei University, and IFReC.
