ASHI 53rd Annual Meeting【USA】
The ASHI 53rd Annual Meeting will take place September 13–17, 2027, at Hyatt Regency New Orleans in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. Organized by the American Society for Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics (ASHI), this international scientific meeting focuses on histocompatibility, immunogenetics and transplant immunology. It is relevant to research and clinical laboratory technologies involving human leukocyte antigens (HLA), donor-recipient compatibility assessment, anti-HLA antibody testing and immune responses following transplantation.
Meeting Theme and Objectives
ASHI is an international professional society that advances research, education and clinical applications in immunogenetics and transplant immunology. Its annual meeting provides a forum for researchers, physicians, clinical laboratory technologists, laboratory managers and industry professionals to exchange scientific findings and discuss practical challenges in histocompatibility testing and transplant immunology.
Evaluating donor-recipient compatibility and immunological risk is essential in transplantation medicine. Research into HLA genetic diversity, antibody testing and immune responses after transplantation contributes to the development of laboratory technologies and improvements in patient care.
The official theme, meeting chair’s message and special initiatives for the 53rd annual meeting are under preparation.

Key Research Areas and Highlights
The following research areas are relevant to ASHI’s scientific and clinical laboratory activities. They do not constitute a confirmed session list for the 53rd annual meeting.
- HLA and Immunogenetics: Human leukocyte antigen genetic diversity, associations between HLA genes and disease, and individual variation in immune responses.
- HLA Typing: DNA-based HLA typing, PCR-based assays and next-generation sequencing (NGS) approaches to genetic analysis.
- Histocompatibility Testing: Donor-recipient compatibility assessment and evaluation of immunological risk before transplantation.
- Anti-HLA Antibodies and Donor-Specific Antibodies (DSA): Antibody specificity assessment, antibody profiling and applications in transplantation medicine.
- Crossmatch Testing: Lymphocyte-based compatibility testing, flow cytometry crossmatching and virtual crossmatching.
- Transplant Immunology: Organ and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, mechanisms of rejection and post-transplant immune monitoring.
- Laboratory Quality Management: Assay validation, standardization, proficiency testing and quality assurance of laboratory data.
Pharma Nexus highlights: Relevant technologies include HLA typing reagents, nucleic acid extraction and liquid handling systems, sequencing instruments, antibody testing systems, flow cytometers, sample preparation instruments and laboratory information management systems. Technologies that improve analytical quality while increasing workflow efficiency are also noteworthy. These are related technology areas, not confirmed products to be exhibited in 2027.
