American Society for Virology (ASV) 42nd Annual Meeting

Justin, Clay, Ally, and Jake attended the 41st Annual Meeting of the American Society for Virology, which took place in Milwaukee from July 16-20. Due to COVID-19, this was the first time the conference was held in person since 2019, leading to the biggest turn out yet! At the conference, Clay gave a Flash Talk on the “Development And Characterization Of A mRNA-LNP Vaccine Against Dengue Virus” and Ally gave a Workshop Talk on how ”Acute Viral Infection Induces Age-Specific Gene Expression Patterns in Lymph Node Stromal Cells.” Jake presented a poster on how “SARS-CoV-2 Vaccines Elicit Heterologous Protection and Block Viral Dissemination.” Overall, we had a lot of fun, got to hear about a lot of interesting science, and we are super excited to return next year!
