Third international workshop "virus-like particles as vaccines" (VLP-WORKSHOP)

Objective

In 1995 and 1998 the 1^st and 2^nd International workshops on Virus-like particles as vaccines were held at the Charity Medical School in Berlin. Encouraged by the success of these two previous workshops the organization of a third work- shop was decided and a scientific committee was founded. Whereas the first two workshops were mainly focussed on the presentation of the different virus-like particle carriers useful for vaccine development, the forthcoming workshop is died- cited to specific vaccine development against highly important viral pathogens as hepatitis B virus, human papilla virus, human immunodeficiency virus, hantaviruses, rotaviruses and others. A main task of the workshop is to convene leading experts working in basic research (studying molecular biology, pathogen city, epidemiology and immunology of virus infections) and experts developing vaccines (researchers, pharmaceutical companies, admittance authorities). In addition, the workshop should strengthen already existing collaborations in the EC (meetings of the participants of con- tracts QLK2-1999-01119 and QLRT-1999-31476) and allow establishing new collaborations not only between research groups but also with pharmaceutical companies.
