5th Workshop on Viral Dynamics

项目摘要 第五届病毒动力学研讨会是一个最重要的会议的数学建模， 病毒感染、免疫反应、疫苗和抗病毒治疗。2021年的大会将延续这一点 卓越的传统，涵盖广泛的主题，包括艾滋病毒，肝炎病毒，疱疹病毒，流感， 疫苗和免疫力。今年的研讨会还将相当关注SARS-CoV-2， 新的和强烈的兴趣领域，特别是将有模拟疫苗反应的会议。的 该计划将包括十二块演示文稿，每个演示块包括四个口头 发言（每次20分钟），然后是10分钟的互动讨论。该计划将 还包括在午餐休息期间同时举行的海报会议，与会者可以在此期间查看和讨论 海报.海报会议将由高度互动的Sococo虚拟会议平台提供便利， 参与者可以选择特定的海报来观看，然后发起与演讲者的讨论。主 我们会议的目标是通过吸引早期职业培训生和 特别是在病毒动力学建模领域代表性不足的少数群体。受训人员参加 会议将部分由R13会议补助金资助的培训生津贴计划提供便利， 将支助来自地球仪各地的10名早期职业研究人员出席和参加讲习班。

PROJECT SUMMARY The 5th Workshop on Viral Dynamics is the single most important conference for the mathematical modeling of viral infections, immune responses, vaccines and antiviral therapies. The 2021 conference will continue this tradition of excellence and cover a wide array of topics including HIV, hepatitis viruses, herpesviruses, influenza, vaccination, and immunity. This year’s workshop will also include a considerable focus on SARS-CoV-2 as an area of new and intense interest, and in particular will have sessions on modeling vaccine responses. The program will include twelve blocks of presentations, with each presentation block comprising four oral presentations (each 20 minutes in duration), followed by 10 minutes of interactive discussion. The program will also include concurrent poster sessions during the lunch breaks, during which attendees can view and discuss posters. The poster session will be facilitated by the highly interactive Sococo virtual conference platform, in which participants can select a particular poster to view and then initiate a discussion with the presenter. A main objective of our conference is to strengthen the training pipeline by engaging early-career trainees and in particular under-represented minorities in the field of viral dynamics modeling. Participation of trainees in the conference will be facilitated in part by the trainee stipend program funded by this R13 conference grant, which will support 10 early-career researchers from across the globe in attending and participating in the workshop.
