HIV Pathogenesis

我们为发病机制会议安排的初步议程分为10次全体会议，每一次会议都展示了从研究艾滋病毒和艾滋病毒相关疾病的特定方面或模型中获得的最新见解。例如，个别会议将重点介绍最近关于艾滋病毒病毒粒子、其在感染细胞和组织中的生长、其对抗病毒药物的耐药性以及其在人类群体中传播的研究。其他将以相关病毒和病毒性疾病(包括猿猴艾滋病)方面的启发性工作为特色。关于艾滋病毒免疫反应的两次会议将与疫苗专题讨论会一起举行，主旨演讲也将举行。我们还设想至少举办两个下午的讲习班，从提交的摘要中挑选发言者，因为这些讲习班提供了让新的和不太知名的调查人员参与的机会。在美国和全世界，艾滋病毒/艾滋病流行病仍然是对人类健康的最大病毒学威胁之一。关于艾滋病毒发病机制的Keystone研讨会是最新研究的主要场所，旨在了解艾滋病毒疾病并开发有效的治疗方法来控制或预防 它。

Our preliminary agenda for the Pathogenesis meeting is organized in 10 plenary sessions, each showcasing the latest insights gained from studying a particular aspect or model of HIV and HIV-related illness. Individual sessions will, for example, highlight recent studies of the HIV virion, its growth in infected cells and tissues, its resistance to antiviral drugs, and its transmission in human populations. Others will feature illuminating work on related viruses and viral diseases, including simian AIDS. Two sessions on HIV immune responses will be convened jointly with the Vaccines symposium, as will the keynote address. We also envision at least two afternoon workshops featuring speakers chosen from submitted abstracts, as these offer an opportunity to involve new and lesser-known investigators. The HIV/AIDS pandemic remains one of the greatest virological threats to human health both in the United States and worldwide. The Keystone Symposium on HIV Pathogenesis ranks as the premier venue for the latest research aimed at understanding HIV disease and developing effective therapies to control or prevent it.
