The BSI Immunometabolism Affinity Group is excited to present the UK's leading immunometabolism event. Previous meetings have attracted over 150 delegates for programmes of cutting-edge immune metabolism research. For 2026, the committee have planned an exceptional line up of speakers from across the UK, wider Europe and worldwide. There will also be plenty of opportunities for early career researchers to present their work throughout the programme and in dedicated 'Bright Sparks' sessions.

Our conference dinner will give you the perfect chance to catch up with colleagues and continue the conversations from the day in a more relaxed informal setting. 

Accommodation is available at the Hilton Hotel. To take advantage of the conference discounted rate, please click here to book your room by 3 March 2026. Availability is limited and offered on a first-come, first-served basis. 

The BSI Immunometabolism Affinity Group looks forward to welcoming you at the the Hilton Newcastle Gateshead Hotel, Bottle Bank, Gateshead, on Thursday 16 and Friday 17 April.
