25 years of bringing together Colorado's Immunologists and Microbiologists
The Colorado Immunology and Microbiology Conference (CIMC) brings together more than 250 scientists from multiple regional institutions for the purpose of education and exchange of ideas in the fields of immunology, microbiology, and cancer research.
The immunology and microbiology community in Colorado and the greater Rocky Mountain region enjoys a very rich tradition of scientific discovery dating from more than half a century ago. However, Immunologists and Microbiologists in Colorado are distributed amongst several affiliated institutions along the front-range of the Rockies, and other institutions are even further afield. The lack of proximity presents an obstacle to achieving optimal collaborative research productivity and effective teaching amongst immunologists in the region.
We instituted the annual Colorado Immunology and Microbiology Conference in 2000 with the goal of overcoming this obstacle and improving teaching and research interactions amongst regional immunologists and microbiologists.
This conference provides networking opportunities for trainees to interact with senior faculty and scientists.
Since then, the CIMC has fostered the development of thriving inter-institutional programs in cancer
immunology, diabetes, autoimmunity, respiratory immunology,
microbiology, and inflammation.

We hope you will join us in Steamboat Springs this year! Please share with others in Colorado’s immunology and microbiology community!
