The Establishment and Control of Viral Persistence
The HIV Dynamics and Replication Program, Center for Cancer Research, NCI is organizing this half-day conference to showcase the latest findings in the broad field of viral persistence. A major barrier to the successful eradication of many viral infections, including HIV, herpes viruses, Ebola virus, and others, persistence is governed by a complex web of viral and cellular factors acting at the level of individuals and populations. An in-depth discussion of how viruses persist, while hosts resist, should lead to new strategies aimed at eliminating viruses entrenched in humans.For more information go tohttps://ncifrederick...

Clinical Trial Designs for Emerging Infectious Diseases (Day 2)
The Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) epidemic has highlighted the importance of being able to rapidly evaluate investigational products during a public health emergency, including in resource limited settings. It is generally agreed that access to early investigational interventions that have not yet been well characterized should be provided in a setting that allows for the reliable assessment of benefits and harms. Ascertaining the safety and efficacy of an investigational product is an important step that is necessary to protect and promote the public health now and in the future. A critical aspect of the response effort is t...

NIH Research Festival: A Celebration of Intramural Science Plenary Session II: Responding to Public Health Emergencies
This plenary session will focus on the many ways that the NIH Intramural Research Program (IRP) has served a crucial role in various public health emergencies. From assessing radiation dangers after the Japanese tsunami and nuclear accident, to developing an Ebola vaccine and treating infected individuals, to tracing the origins of recent food-borne disease outbreaks through genomic analysis, the NIH IRP continues to be among the "first responders" to protect the nation's and the world's health.For more information go to http://researchfestival.nih.gov/2015/plenary_sessions.shtmlAir date: 9/17/2015 10:15:00 AM (Source: Videocast - All Events)
