We are excited to announce the 1st international Chica and Heinz Schaller (CHS) Virology e-Symposium, which will be held virtually on April 22-23, 2021.

The ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic emphasizes the importance of studying viruses and their biology and the necessity to communicate and discuss the latest research, despite the very limited personal interactions. This symposium aims for bringing together senior investigators and junior scientists in an interactive fashion to discuss the latest topics in Virology. In addition, high-quality oral and poster presentations will be selected from submitted abstracts.

Confirmed plenary speakers:

Kartik Chandran (Albert Einstein College of Medicine/US)
