IMMCG welcomes all campus faculty, researchers and staff to two kinds of conversations – both organized by IMMCG scientists Kunzhe Dong and Peipei Zhu.

  • Our Internal Seminar Series is a presentation and discussion about what’s new and what’s next in immunology research.
  • Journal Club showcases recent groundbreaking immunology papers, presented by a member of the IMMCG team.

Internal seminars and Journal Club alternate each Thursday at 12 noon in the Knox seminar room, CN Building. They’re exclusively for students, faculty and staff in the Medical College of Georgia, Augusta University and the Augusta University Healthcare System.

Here’s what’s coming up:
