The Department of Integrated Immunobiology hosted a booth at the Durham PRIDE Festival in the Fall of 2022. We had continuous engagement with people at the festival, with over 250 meaningful interactions with the public. People enjoyed spinning our prize wheel and learning about prominent queer scientists and fun facts about immunology.
We also shared PRIDE themed stickers, which were a big hit. We had three posters, one highlighting recent advances in HIV vaccine development at Duke Human Vaccine Institute (DHVI). Another poster highlighted fun pictures of department members and scientific images from our researchers. The third showcased the activities of our department to improve professionalism and the scientific culture to foster constructive scientific training. These posters are now displayed outside our Jones lecture hall and also accessible below.
