The conference aims at gathering France-based actors (+ one pioneering international contributor, V. Heinrich) in the fast-developping field of immuno-mechanics.
​
The invited speakers will cover a wealth of micromanipulation techniques (including micropipettes, atomic force microscopy, laminar flow chamber, microfabrication and microfluidics, traction force microscopy, and acoustic trapping) applied to several types of immune cells (including T and B lymphocytes, macrophages, natural killers and dendritic cells).

ACCESS
The most convenient way to access the conference site is through the RER B commuter train, which runs every 15 minutes on average. When boarding a RER from central Paris, make sure it is headed for Saint-Rémy-lès-Chevreuses, Orsay-Ville or Massy-Palaiseau and not Robinson. Get off at Massy-Palaiseau or Lozère and follow these directions; this page also features driving directions. Once you have arrived in École polytechnique’s main building, use this map to find amphi Becquerel.
To get on the RER B from a train station or airport, follow the directions from the RATP website. You may also download printable maps of the metro and RER networks. To shorten their journey, we advise travelers to arrive into and leave from the Massy TGV train station or Orly airport if the option is available.
