Sessions / Tracks

1. General Virology and Basic Science

Viral infections is one of the major cause of human and animal disease. Virus genomes are very small and they are incredibly diverse and subject to rapid genetic change. Viruses have their own ways of transmission. The mobility of animals increases the mechanisms of viral transmittance that have evolved, whereas plants remain immobile and thus viruses must rely on environmental factors to be transmitted between hosts.

2 .Viral Pathogenesis, Virulence and Latency       

Viral pathogenesis is the investigation of how organic infections cause ailments in their objective hosts, usually carried out at the cellular or molecular level. Vector-borne diseases are contaminations transmitted by the chomp of tainted arthropod species, for example, mosquitoes, ticks, sandflies, blackflies, etc. A blood-borne disease is one that can be spread through sullying by blood and other body liquids. RNA quieting controls quality expression to direct improvement, genome solidness and uneasiness impelled responses. In plants, RNA hushing is likewise perceived as a noteworthy safe framework focused against plant viruses.

 3: Viruses and Diseases

An alphavirus belongs to the group IV Togaviridae family of viruses according to the grouping of collection considering viral genome association exhibited by David Baltimore. Filoviruses belong to a virus family called Filoviridae and can bring about serious hemorrhagic fever in people and nonhuman primates. Picorna viruses are non-wrapped, positive-stranded RNA infections with an icosahedral capsid. West Nile infection is a mosquito-borne zoonotic arbovirus having a place with the sort Flavivirus in the family Flaviviridae.

4: Therapeutic Approaches and Targets for Viral Infections

DNA immunization is a novel method used to efficiently fortify humoral and cellular immune responses to protein antigens. Viral vaccines contain either inactivated viruses or constricted viruses .Inactive viral vaccines contain a virus, which have lost their ability to replicate and in order for it to bring about a response it contains more antigen than live immunizations. Allergy immunotherapy is a clinically documented efficacious treatment, which may considerably reduce the patient’s allergic symptoms and the need for traditional, symptom-relieving medication. Antiviral drugs are a class of medication utilized particularly for treating viral contaminations.

 5: Viral Immunology

Cell signaling is part of a complex system of communication that administers basic cellular activities and coordinates cell activities. A Neutralizing antibody is an antibody which safeguards a cell from an antigen or infectious body by inhibiting or neutralizing any effect it has biologically. Cell-mediated immunity is an immune response that does not involve antibodies, but rather involves the activation of phagocytes, antigen-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, and the release of various cytokines in response to an antigen.

 6.Global Epidemiology of HIV/AIDS, STDs, & STIs

The human immunodeficiency virus is a lentivirus that causes HIV infection and AIDS.HIV diagnosis is done by testing your blood or saliva for antibodies to the virus.

The technique of viral culturing is dwindling as novel immunological and molecular tests detect and provide accurate and more rapid results. In the last decade, both qualitative and the quantitative nucleic acid detection techniques has had an extensive impact on viral diagnostics.

10.New Innovations in Viral Infections

Viral Outbreaks generally are pandemic, mostly transmitted via tourists, especially air travelers. These outbreaks have a very serious and hard impact on the global economy. These impacts can be of short term and long term. These impacts sometimes are so severe that it causes about 80% financial impact globally; in the recent Ebola outbreak in 2015, the short term impact was an estimated $359 million in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia alone, which were the severe worst it countries, with the long term impact being $809 million.

Infectious diseases pose a severe threat to global population health and are majorly devastating for the tropical countries as these infectious agents can easily thrive on those climatic conditions. The ease of international travel is one of the primary cause that is liable for transmission of these infectious agents from tropical to temperate and in some cases, also to the polar zones of the world; mainly because of global warming.

11.  Organ specific Cancer and Tumor virology

Viral gastroenteritis is an inflammation of the stomach and intestines created by one of any number of viruses. It is otherwise called as the stomach flu. Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most well-known sort of liver cancer. Most examples of HCC are secondary to either a viral hepatitis contamination or cirrhosis. Simian infection 40, a polyomavirus that is found in both monkeys and humans. It was named for the effect it made on contaminated green monkey cells, which showed a strange number of vacuoles.

12.  Respiratory and Emerging/Re-emerging Viruses

An alphavirus has a place with the gathering IV Togaviridae group of infections according to the arrangement of grouping considering viral genome association displayed by David Baltimore. Filoviruses fit in with an virus family called Filoviridae and can bring about serious hemorrhagic fever in people and nonhuman primates. Picornaviruses are non-wrapped, positive-stranded RNA infections with an icosahedral capsid. West Nile infection is a mosquito-borne zoonotic arbovirus having a place with the genus Flavivirus in the family Flaviviridae.

13. Coronaviruses COVID-19

Corona viruses area unit a gaggle of viruses that cause diseases in mammals and birds. In humans, coronaviruses cause tract infections that area unit generally delicate, like the respiratory disease, although rarer forms like respiratory disease, MERS, and COVID-19 are often fatal. Symptoms vary in alternative species: in chickens, they cause AN higher tract illness, whereas in cows and pigs they cause looseness of the bowels. There area unit nevertheless to be vaccines or antiviral medication to stop or treat human coronavirus infections.

14: Human Vaccines - Infectious & Non Infectious Diseases

A vaccine is an inactivated form of bacteria or virus that is injected into the body to simulate an actual infection. Because the injected microorganisms are 'dead,' they don't cause a person to become sick. Instead, vaccines stimulate an immune response by the body that will fight off that type of illness. It covers infectious disease targets and non-infectious disease targets. To generate vaccine-mediated protection is a complex challenge. Currently available vaccines have largely been developed empirically, with little or no understanding on how they activate the immune system. Their early protective efficacy is primarily conferred by the induction of antigen-specific antibodies. However, there is more to antibody-mediated protection than the peak of vaccine-induced antibody titers.

15. Vaccine Research & Development

Vaccine Development is an activity that focuses on a variety of technological initiatives and applied research, which enhance and promote improved systems and practices for vaccine safety. In the past year, the unprecedented Ebola disease outbreak galvanized research and industry response and as we continue to search for solutions, we must review the lessons learned in order to overcome the current challenges. Vaccines development is a long, complex process, often lasting 10-15 years and involving a combination of public and private involvement. The current system for developing, testing, and regulating vaccines developed during the 20th century as the groups involved standardized their procedures and regulations.

16: Next-Generation Vaccine Delivery Technologies

Drug delivery systems are engineered technologies for the targeted delivery and/or controlled release of therapeutic agents. Drugs have long been used to improve health and extend lives. The practice of drug delivery has changed dramatically in the last few decades and even greater changes are anticipated in the near future. Biomedical engineers have not only contributed substantially to our understanding of the physiological barriers to efficient drug delivery—such as transport in the circulatory system and drug movement through cells and tissues—they have contributed to the development of a number of new modes of drug delivery that have entered clinical practice.  Role of vaccine delivery technologies includes rational development of vaccines, achieving immunization goals, supporting best clinical practice.

Vaccines continue to revolutionize our ability to prevent disease and improve health. With every technological advance, we are able to extend the benefits of vaccines to more people and provide better protection from life-threatening infectious diseases.

17. Vaccine Adjuvants          

Vaccine adjuvants – is an ingredient of a vaccine that helps create a stronger immune response in the patient’s body.  In other words, adjuvants help vaccines work better. Some vaccines made from weakened or dead germs contain naturally occurring adjuvants and help the body produce a strong protective immune response. However, most vaccines developed today include just small components of germs, such as their proteins, rather than the entire virus or bacteria. These vaccines often must be made with adjuvants to ensure the body produces an immune response strong enough to protect the patient from the germ he or she is being vaccinated against. Aluminum gels or aluminum salts are vaccines ingredients that have been used in vaccines since the 1930s.  Small amounts of aluminum are added to help the body build stronger immunity against the germ in the vaccine.

18. Human Preventive & Therapeutic Vaccines

A preventative vaccine is administered to a person who is free of the targeted infection. By introducing a part of the virus or an inactive virus (which acts like a decoy) into the body, the immune system reacts by producing antibodies. Preventive vaccines are widely used to prevent diseases like polio, chicken pox, measles, mumps, rubella, influenza (flu), and hepatitis A and B.

In addition to preventive vaccines, there are also “therapeutic vaccines”. These are vaccines that are designed to treat people who already have a disease. Some scientists prefer to refer to therapeutic vaccines as “therapeutic immunogens.

19. Vaccines Safety & Efficancy

Vaccines are the best defense we have against serious, preventable, and sometimes deadly contagious diseases. Vaccines are some of the safest medical products available, but like any other medical product, there may be health risk. Accurate information about the value of vaccines as well as their possible side-effects helps people to make informed decisions about vaccination. The safety of vaccines is carefully monitored, starting early in the product development and continuing for as long as the vaccine is being used. Find out about what is done before and after vaccines are approved for use and what is known about the benefits and safety of specific vaccines. There is a lot of false information about vaccines safety on the Internet. This can be confusing. Discover the answers to common questions and concerns about vaccines.

20. Vaccines Business Development

Collaboration plays a major part in the success of Vaccines Business. This is exemplified in the relationships built, products launched and lives improved.

Vaccines Business development: comprise a number of tasks and processes generally aiming at developing and implementing growth opportunities within and between organizations.
