Influenza Antivirals: Efficacy and Resistance - Updated agenda now available!
8-10 November 2011
Rio Othon Palace Hotel, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
The emergent 2009 H1N1 pandemic brought into acute focus the uses and limitations of the available anti-influenza drugs in mitigating the early impact of an influenza pandemic. Specific topics to be covered in the programme include the available anti-influenza drugs and their use in different situations and settings; the emergence and molecular basis of resistance; surveillance and detection of resistant phenotypes and resistance mutations, especially in relation to drug use; associated studies of potential local and community spread; animal studies of virus fitness and the potential clinical/epidemiological significance of resistant mutants; new antiviral approaches and drug combinations.
