Twelfth Annual Conference on Vaccine Research
The National Foundation for Infectious Diseases will host the 12th Annual Conference on Vaccine Research, April 27 – 29, 2009 at the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront Hotel. The conference collaborators include: the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention; the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration; Center for Vaccine Development, University of Maryland; Emory Vaccine Center; Fondation Mérieux; the International Association for Biologicals; International Society for Vaccines; International Vaccine Institute; National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases; Netherlands Vaccine Institute; Albert B. Sabin Vaccine Institute; and the United States Department of Agriculture.
The conference is designed to bring together the diverse disciplines involved in the research and development of vaccines. Expert faculty will present the latest vaccine-related scientific data, results, and issues via symposia and panel discussions. Conference topic areas include: issues in adjuvants; global health and programs of the World Health Organization (WHO); synergies between veterinary and human vaccine discovery; an update on a vaccine for tuberculosis; and malaria and the status of malaria vaccine development.
Continuing education credits will be offered. For additional information please visit www.nfid.org/conferences/vaccine09 or e-mail vaccine@nfid.org
