HIV Vaccines (X5)
Organizer(s) Gunilla B. Karlsson Hedestam, Andrew McMichael and Christopher J. Miller
March 21—26, 2012
Keystone Resort • Keystone, Colorado USA
Abstract Deadline: Nov 21, 2011
Late Abstract Deadline: Dec 22, 2011
Scholarship Deadline: Nov 21, 2011
Early Registration Deadline: Jan 20, 2012
Part of the Keystone Symposia Global Health Series, Supported by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Sponsored by Sangamo BioSciences, Inc.
Joint Meeting:
Viral Immunity and Host Gene Influence (X6)
Summary of Meeting:
The 2012 Keystone Symposia meeting on HIV Vaccines will focus on basic aspects of immunology and HIV-1 virology to highlight issues that challenge the field. The genetic diversity of circulating HIV-1 variants puts extreme demands on the quality of the response a prophylactic vaccine will need to elicit. Most likely, conserved viral determinants need to be targeted and the response must be sustained over time. To facilitate a broad and open discussion around these topics, the symposium will convene expert investigators from the HIV-1 vaccine field as well as a number of basic immunologists. Aspects of natural HIV-1 infection of direct relevance to the development of a vaccine, such as viral transmission and viral escape from immune responses, will be addressed in joint sessions with the parallel meeting on Viral Immunity and Host Gene Influence. Speakers will also be invited to present in the workshops and in the oral sessions based on submitted abstracts.
