Open-call Symposium : [2AS-10] Interdisciplinary virology to prepare for the next pandemic

[2AS-10]【E】Interdisciplinary virology to prepare for the next pandemic

Thu. Nov 28, 2024 9:00 AM - 11:15 AM JST
Thu. Nov 28, 2024 12:00 AM - 2:15 AM UTC
Room 10(Fukuoka International Congress Center, 2F 201)
Organizer: Kei Sato (The University of Tokyo), Takao Hashiguchi (Kyoto University)
Sponsored by: International Leading Research "Promotion of comprehensive interdisciplinary virology for the post-COVID era"
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has highlighted the threat of viral infections. Importantly, COVID-19 is not the last pandemic in human history, as WHO and CDC have suggested. Research to prepare for the "next pandemic" is essential not only from a basic science perspective, but also to maintain a peaceful social life. In this symposium, we would like to discuss the interdisciplinary and advanced viral research needed to prepare for the next pandemic.
