Hofburg Conference Centre.
An international conference and event centre in the heart of the capital
The sprawling Hofburg complex was the bastion of the Habsburg monarchs, who ruled over Austria – and at times many other regions of Europe – for more than six centuries, from 1276 until the downfall of the Habsburgs in 1918. All meetings, exhibits, poster sessions and the Welcome Reception will take place at the Hofburg.
Hofburg Kongresszentrum, Heldenplatz, 1010 Vienna
Due to the central location of the Hofburg venue in heart of Vienna, participants are encouraged to visit some of the nearby restaurants together in groups. Please visit here for more information on recommendations by our local hosts: https://www.falter.at/lokalfuehrer?r=Wien&p=1010&a

The world’s most important conference on basic, translational and clinical research related to cytokine biology
Cytokines & Interferons: From Biology to Clinics
Cytokine targeting has become one of the greatest revolutions in modern medicine. A large number of severe and sometimes even lethal inflammatory and autoimmune diseases have become manageable due to selective inhibition of cytokines and cytokine signaling. The development of compounds that selectively inhibit cytokines or interferons has permitted an so far unprecedented molecular characterization of human disease. Cytokines also contribute to cancer development and alterations in tissue homeostasis. Cytokines 2019 will address these developments and provide a comprehensive picture of the current knowledge of cytokine pathways in human disease and the strategies to inhibit, modulate or foster cytokine responses.
