Antigenic variation is a roadblock to development of an effective vaccine against many human and animal viruses, such as HIV-1, influenza virus, and porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus. This symposium is built on an interdisciplinary approach that aims at fostering collaboration and broader application of recent discoveries. VAAVV 2015 participants will be provided with ample opportunities to interact with fellow investigators who bring expertise in the dynamic fields of virology, immunology, bioengineering, structural biology, as well as human and veterinary vaccinology during the symposium.
Graduate students and post-docs are encouraged to submit abstracts for presentation.
The VAAVV 2015 Symposium is sponsored in part by PIIR - Iowa State University President's Initiative for Interdisciplinary Research.
