Perutz Labs, University of Vienna, Austria, //27th -30th August 2007 / Please visit our website for workshop and registration details: http://www.embl-hamburg.de/workshops/2007/virus The closing date for applications is 17th June 2007 The number of attendants is limited to 120 and therefore participants will be selected from the pool of applications based on their potential contribution to the workshop. We encourage submission of abstracts for poster presentations. Some of these will be selected for oral presentation. The workshop is planned to have three connected themes, namely evolution of RNA viruses, the replication machinery of RNA viruses and the perspectives for, and development of, new antiviral agents. The objectives of the workshop are: * to bring together experts on different virus families, to increase communication between them and to underline similarities and discuss differences in RNA virus replication machineries * to provide a forum for young researchers to meet with experts covering a wide range of topics and to discuss their current and future work. * to describe current efforts in the development of antiviral compounds (including the different methodologies being used) and to identify where more information/research is needed. * to discuss the latest insights in RNA virus evolution, in particular in connection to the emergence of new RNA virus infections, and assess which lessons from the past could be useful to combat newly emerging RNA viruses. * to discuss the wealth of structural information on RNA virus enzymes that is currently being produced due to the world-wide efforts in structural biology. The workshop is sponsored by EMBO and cosponsored by VIZIER (http://www.vizier-europe.org).
