It is essential for researchers to keep abreast of the work being done by colleagues in a variety of disciplines. To facilitate this, the UCLA-CDU CFAR and the UCLA AIDS Institute sponsors a bi-monthly conference featuring presentations made by researchers working in both basic and translational sciences, clinical therapeutics and biomedical prevention. The topics covered include, among many others, host-virus interactions, novel therapeutics, vaccines, stem-cell research, aging, and viral pathogenesis. The Bi-monthly Multidisciplinary Virology Seminar Series is an in-person meeting from 9:00am to 10:00am in the Biomedical Science Research Building (BSRB) 154 every other Tuesday. A light breakfast will be available during the meeting.
For more information regarding the Multidisciplinary Virology Seminar Series and/or to be added to the listserv for these meetings, please contact Rina Lee-Cha.
We’re excited to welcome you back to our Virology Seminar Series, and we’ve got an exciting lineup ahead this season. Whether you’re a long-time attendee or joining us for the first time, we can’t wait to dive back into the latest breakthroughs and discussions in the field of virology.
