Lecture/Seminar

Tuesday, October 13 at 8:00 am - 10:30 am

Organized by Drs. Nevan Krogan, Shaeri Mukherjee, Gerald Spaeth, Carmen Buchreiser, and Julia Chamot-Rooke, the Second Annual QBI/Institut Pasteur Symposium on Infectious Disease will be held online in a two-part series on October 13 and 14 from 8:00 am - 10:30 am PDT.

The Quantitative Biosciences Institute (QBI) seeks transformative results in biomedicine by supporting fundamental quantitative research in the biological sciences. The Institut Pasteur thrives on increasing its global health impact through the strengthening of essential biomedical research activities and their translation into biomedical innovations and technologies. The Quantitative Biology program of the Institut Pasteur intends to facilitate research innovation at the interface of infectious biology and quantitative sciences. The Host-Pathogen Map Initiative, which was jointly formed by QBI and CEND (Center for Emerging and Neglected Disease) at UC-Berkeley, aims to study the host-pathogen interface systematically. In support of these missions, the symposium will focus on using innovative and quantitative approaches to study the host-pathogen interface.

The Second Annual QBI/Institut Pasteur Symposium on Infectious Disease aims to continue facilitating collaborative relationships between scientists from both institutions.
