GVIRF Webinar: Vaccine Adjuvants for Global Health
The biennial Global Vaccine and Immunization Research Forum (GVIRF) and the associated GVIRF webinar series are global convenings that bring together the entire Vaccine and Immunization Research community, from basic immunology to implementation research, and from low to high income countries to address research challenges, innovations, and opportunities to facilitate vaccine research and development and maximize the benefit of immunization. Both the GVIRF and the webinars are co-organized by the US National Institute of Allergy& Infectious Diseases (NIAID), the Bill& Melinda Gates Foundation, and the World Health Organiza...

Sleuthing the Microbiome Reveals Undercover Agents of Oncogenesis
The annual Astute Clinician Lecture was established in 1998 through a gift from the late Dr. Robert W. Miller and his wife, Haruko. It honors U.S. scientists who have observed unusual clinical occurrences and, by investigating them, have opened an important new avenue of research. The lectureship exemplifies how astute clinical observations can lead to innovative research. Speakers are proposed by members of the Medical Executive Committee (MEC) with voting for the top three candidates. Selection from this slate of candidates is made by the NIH Director.
An expert in foodborne and intestinal infections, Cynthia Sears is ...

Genomic Surveillance and Characterization of Microbial Threats Facilitates Early Detection and Containment of Disease Outbreaks in West Africa.
Dr. Christian Happy, has the expertise and skills, leadership and motivation necessary to successfully conduct and oversee health research projects in West Africa. He has a broad background in molecular biology and genomics with application in infectious diseases, including malaria, Lassa fever, Ebola virus disease and HIV. Of his career accomplishments to date, the most meaningful was my use of genomics technologies for early diagnosis and confirmation (within 6 hours) of Ebola virus disease (EVD) in Nigeria. This singular action was major in containing EVD in Nigeria, and therefore saving millions of lives in Africa. Thi...

IIG Seminar: NIH/FDA - Tobias Hohl
All people encounter, inhale, and ingest fungi on a daily basis. Although only several hundred of the estimated five million species of fungi worldwide cause disease in humans, advances in medical technologies and the global AIDS pandemic have dramatically increased our susceptibility to fungal disease. In cancer and bone marrow transplant patients, the filamentous mold Aspergillus fumigatus and the commensal fungus Candida albicans represent significant causes of infection-related morbidity and mortality. At present, no fungal vaccines have been licensed for clinical use, and contemporary antifungal therapies for systemic...

Mammalian DNases and their role in the tug of war between Staphylococcus aureus and the host
Immunology Interest Group
Victor J. Torres is a microbiologist investigating how multidrug-resistant bacteria cause disease and identifying new therapies to fight and prevent infection. Torres uses a diverse range of techniques spanning genetics, molecular biology, immunology, and bioinformatics to study the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). S. aureus causes a wide range of diseases, from mild skin infections to life-threatening blood infections. Highly virulent and, in some instances, resistant to antibiotics (known as methicillin-resistant S. aureus, or MRSA), S. aureus is responsible for millions of illnesses ...

Klaus Fr ü h ’ s research focuses on understanding the molecular interaction between viral pathogens and their hosts, particularly the identification and characterization of viral gene products that modulate the innate and adaptive immune responses. This knowledge is translated into the development and improvement of cytomegalovirus (CMV)-vectored vaccines which are unique in their ability to persistently maintain an immune shield of so called effector memory T cells, including highly unconventional (MHC-II and MHC-E) restricted CD8+ T cells. CMV vectored vaccines have shown protection in non-human primate models of AID...
