    of Novartis Vaccines & Diagnostics on "Reverse Vaccinology" on November 1, followed by four days
    of stimulating plenary sessions, workshops and poster sessions;
  • Explore the potential of systems biology in vaccine design and development, as well as genomic and structural approaches to antigen and adjuvant discovery, design and validation;
  • Provide a rare opportunity bringing together immunologists, vaccinologists, virologists and systems biologists from academia, industry and government to accelerate progress in vaccine development.

Visit www.keystonesymposia.org/13T1 to view the full program, submit an abstract and register, and click here for a printable flyer.
