São Paulo Advanced School on Primary Immunodeficiencies: Unraveling Human Immunophysiology

A 1st São Paulo Advanced School on Primary Immunodeficiencies: Unraveling Human Immunophysiology – I ESPCA-PID foi organizada pela Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo, com coordenação da Profa. Dra. Magda Maria Sales Carneiro-Sampaio, e fomentada pela FAPESP.

A proposta da I ESPCA-PID era uma estratégia inovadora para a compreensão da fisiologia e da fisiopatologia do sistema imunológico humano, através do estudo de crianças portadoras de Imunodeficiências Primárias.

Um comitê selecionou 80 alunos (27 estrangeiros e 53 brasileiros) para participar do evento, entre os 135 inscritos (70 deles brasileiros e 65 estrangeiros).

A I ESPCA-PID contou com a participação de 31 docentes brasileiros e 13 docentes estrangeiros.
