Call for Travel Fellowship Applications: Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy
June 19 - 20, 2013 The New York Academy of Sciences Presented by the Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy Consortium and The New York Academy of Sciences Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML) is, in the general population, a rare but serious demyelinating disease of the brain, often resulting in severe disability or death and is caused by infection of oligodendrocytes by the JC polyomavirus (JCV). It is believed that fifty to sixty percent of the population is sero-positive for JCV, indicating exposure to the virus. Despite the high prevalence of JCV infection in the human population, which ty...
