What: Pseudotype viruses are rapidly establishing themselves as important research and diagnostic tools of basic and clinical scientists facilitating the detailed study of individual viral genes, host cell receptors and highly pathogenic viruses, circumventing the need for high-level biosafety containment. The switching of surface envelope proteins expressed on the surface of these pseudotypes enables them to be used as surrogate viruses in neutralization/antiviral screening assays and for the study of cell–virus receptor interactions. This meeting encompasses the many diverse applications of pseudotype technologies from a practical, translational and public health perspective. This event has CPD accreditation.

Who should attend:

• Public and animal health scientists.
• Individuals establishing diagnostic assays for viruses.
• Epidemiologists, virologists, immunologists, R&D, pre-clinical vaccinologists.
