INTERNATIONAL PAPILLOMAVIRUS WORKSHOP-1987

国际乳头瘤病毒研讨会-1987年将于6月举行 1987年14-18日在乔治敦大学。 本次会议代表了 这是一系列年度国际研讨会中的第六次， 自1982年以来，出席。 目的是将临床医生和基础科学家聚集在一起 对乳头状瘤病毒感兴趣 因为乳头瘤病毒 与多种临床综合征有关， 这些病毒在生物学上很有趣， 包括分子生物学家，细胞生物学家，病毒学家， 病理学家和妇科临床医生， 耳鼻喉科和皮肤科。 在过去的五年里，乳头状瘤病毒领域经历了 发展到现在，关键的研究领域已经 已经确定，必须发展。 这些领域包括：（1） 了解基因组组织和机制 从而调节基因组表达;（2）改进的方法， 乳头状瘤病毒感染;（3）明确的前瞻性研究 了解乳头瘤病毒引起的疾病的生物学;（4） 病毒与宿主相互作用的有力定义和 动物模型系统;（5）免疫系统在 乳头瘤病毒感染;（6）治疗方式的评价 人类疾病。 这些领域是相互关联的，需要密切 各种科学和临床学科之间的相互作用。 尽管人们越来越意识到 乳头瘤病毒在人类疾病中，这种病毒组仍然存在 对新的调查员来说很复杂。 的快速扩张 这一领域的知识意味着， 资料尚未公布。 研讨会是一种机制 一个新的调查员进入一个领域， 科学家们仍然是最新的。

The International Papillomavirus Workshop-1987 will be held June 14-18, 1987 at Georgetown University. This meeting represents the sixth in a series of yearly international workshops with open attendance since 1982. The aim is to bring together clinicians and basic scientists interested in the papillomaviruses. Because the papillomaviruses are associated with a variety of clinical syndromes and the fact that these viruses are biologically interesting, attendance will consist of molecular biologists, cell biologists, virologists, pathologists, and clinicians specializing in gynecology, otolaryngology and dermatology. In the last five years, the papillomavirus field has undergone evolution to the present time in which key areas of research have been defined and must be developed. These areas include: (1) an understanding of genomic organization and the mechanisms whereby genomic expression is regulated; (2) improved methods of papillomavirus infection; (3) prospective studies for clear understanding of the biology of papillomavirus-induced disease; (4) a cogent definition of virus-host interactions and development of animal model systems; (5) role of the immune system in papillomavirus infection; (6) evaluation of modalities of therapy of human disease. These areas are interrelated and require close interaction among various scientific and clinical disciplines. Although there is increasing awareness of the importance of papillomaviruses in human disease, this virus group remains complex to the new investigator. The rapid expansion of knowledge in this field has meant that much of the new information is not yet published. Workshops are a mechanism whereby a new investigator to a field as well as more established scientists remain current.
