As a well-respected scientist in the field of infection, Dr. Bingyun Li at WVU has been invited to give a keynote lecture on “Immunotherapeutic approaches against infection” at the 2019 European Cells and Materials Annual Conference. The conference will be held during June 26-28, 2019 at the Congress Center, Davos, Switzerland. The focus of the 2019 eCM conference will be on Orthopedic Infection. Since the inaugural meeting in 1999, the eCM annual meetings have been a place where scientists and clinicians meet to develop projects that have a clinical focus and are translational in nature. Li is a Professor in Orthopaedics and a faculty participant at the West Virginia Clinical and Translational Science Institute, and his research focuses on infection, drug delivery, advanced materials and nanotechnology. His research in bone infection has been recognized nationally and internationally, including the 2011 Berton Rahn Research Prize from AO Foundation (Switzerland), the 2013 Pfizer Best Scientific Paper Award from the Asia Pacific Orthopaedic Association Annual Meeting, and the 2013 Collaborative Exchange Award from the Orthopaedic Research Society.
