The Gordon Research Seminar on Viruses and Cells is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.
The Viruses and Cells GRS seeks to focus on new basic research in the field of virology through the young scientists of today that advance our understanding of viruses and their intricate interactions with cells. Oral presentations will be chosen from submitted abstracts and all attendees are encouraged to present posters. Talks and posters will span all facets of basic and applied virology, including but not limited to virus entry; the machinery of virus replication; control of transcription and translation; assembly, transport and exit of viral particles; viral pathogenesis; antivirals and vaccines; evolution and selection; innate and adaptive immunity; and viral oncogenesis. Discussion leaders, who are experts in the topics covered in each session will engage the audience and lead lively and stimulating discussions following each presentation. The poster sessions will provide opportunities for one-to-one discussion of research findings, as well as networking and setting up collaborations amongst peers in a congenial and informal setting. All presenters are encouraged to discuss new unpublished research in front of an international audience, in line with the spirit of Gordon Research Conferences. Providing attendees with a chance to engage with experienced leaders in academia, industry and other fields is one of the primary goals of Viruses and Cells GRS. This GRS will provide opportunities for early career researchers to interact with established leaders in their field in a collegiate environment, through keynote talks and a career development session. Prospective participants are encouraged to apply early, as the associated GRC is usually oversubscribed much before its deadline. It should be noted that preference for acceptance into the meeting will be given to those submitting poster/talk abstracts. To be considered for a talk, please submit your abstract by February 13, 2017. We will attempt to provide support up to the costs of registration for speakers, contingent on fundraising efforts. All scientists at career stages similar to that of a graduate student or post-doc are invited to join.
