Indian Institute of Science Education and Research Kolkata
Date: 13th March - 20th March 2026
Symposium to be held between 13th March - 20th March, 2026 at Sinclairs Palace Retreat, Udaipur
It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 2026 Conference on “Multiscale Biology and Disease Pathways: Insights into Cells, Systems, and Therapeutics,” organized as part of Bioanalytical Tools and Techniques (BAW) 2026, the signature conference series of IISER Kolkata. This event also forms an integral component of our ongoing outreach initiative, through which we host scientific gatherings every one and a half years across diverse regions of India. By selecting culturally rich locations, we ensure that India’s heritage remains woven into the fabric of each meeting, enriched further by thoughtfully curated cultural programs that foster deeper scientific and cultural exchange.
This conference aims to bring together microbiologists, immunologists, and researchers from allied disciplines to foster dialogue, share discoveries, and inspire future collaborations. The scientific program spans a wide and dynamic spectrum, including Sensing Pathogens; Cell-autonomous Immunity; Virus–Bacteria–Fungus Host Interactions; Pathogen Defenses Against Innate Immunity; Pathological Consequences of Inflammation; and microbial community–host interactions. In this edition, we also introduce discussions on the applications of AI–ML in health and disease, reflecting the rapidly evolving landscape of biomedical research. These themes highlight the expanding contours of modern pathophysiology, now deeply intertwined with patho-chemistry, immunopathology, patho-biophysics, patho-informatics, and translational medicine.
With 75–80 researchers, clinicians, and trainees from across the globe, the conference aspires to spark new research directions and experimental strategies, deepening our understanding of disease mechanisms and guiding the development of future therapeutics.
The 2026 edition of the BAW outreach program will be hosted at one of India’s most historic and vibrant heritage destinations — Sinclairs Palace Retreat, Udaipur. The majestic architecture and serene landscapes of Udaipur promise to elevate both the scientific spirit and the shared experience of all participants. This harmonious blend of scientific rigor with the grandeur of Indian tradition creates an ideal setting for high-spirited discussions, creativity, and reflection.
We look forward to an engaging, inspiring, and culturally enriching gathering in Udaipur..
Note that NO TA/DA will be given to the participants.
Registration fee will cover your full accommodation at the Sinclairs Palace Retreat, Udaipur, Rajasthan (checking in March 13th, checking out March 20th), all conference.
