Here are the June dates and a little more information. What a delightfully 'homey' announcement - unusual.
Dear colleagues,
On behalf of the organizing committee of the 15th International Conference on Human Retrovirology: HTLV and Related Retroviruses, we would like to invite you to our conference to be held in Belgium in the cities of Leuven and Gembloux from June 5 to June 8, 2011. The main topics of the meeting will be human T-lymphotropic virus (HTLV), Xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV) and endogenous retroviruses. All accepted abstracts will be published in the free online journal "Retrovirology".
Apart from attending the conference, you will be delighted by the medieval towns of Leuven, Ghent or Bruges, and have the opportunity to explore the green Ardennes, or relax in the famous thermal center of Spa. When in Belgium, share our bourgundian lifestyle with one of our special beers, and don't forget to taste our chocolates and fries.
We look forward to seeing you ,
Anne-Mieke and Luc
About the conference
The aim of this biennial meeting is to promote discussion and share new findings between researchers and clinicians for the benefit of patients infected by human T-lymphotropic virus (HTLV). HTLV infects approximately 15-20 million individuals worldwide and causes a broad spectrum of diseases including neurodegeneration and leukemia. Due to the recent exciting discoveries in this field, a particular session will focus on endogenous retroviruses, foamy viruses and XMRV.
