Virology Webinar

Theme: Exploring the research in Virology and Viral Infection Symptoms

We are delighted to invite all participants from all over the world to the Virology Webinar which will be held on February 18, 2022. This Virology Webinar brings together all the virologists, students, researchers, engineers, and innovators looking to enhance their skills, exchange ideas, and gain a deeper understanding that will transform their work. Discover the latest breakthroughs in the field.
The Virology webinar awaits members from all over the world, and this webinar will feature plenary sessions, speakers, posters, and presentations. This webinar offers lively discussions on recent advancements, new strategies, and new techniques for developing new sensory materials for global requirements.

Session 1: Medical Virology and Parasitology
Medical parasitology traditionally has included the study of three major groups of animals: parasitic protozoa, parasitic helminthic (worms), and those arthropods that directly cause disease or act as vectors of various pathogens. A parasite is a pathogen that simultaneously injures and derives sustenance from its host. Some organisms called parasites are actually commensals, in that they neither benefit nor harm their host (for example, Endamoeba coli). Infections of humans caused by parasites number in the billions and range from relatively innocuous to fatal.

Session 2: Molecular Biology Research and Viral Therapy
Molecular biology is the most advanced form of research field to detect infection by going through the molecular composition of the virus. Molecular therapy includes various types of techniques such as DNA cloning, the proliferation of DNA, bacterial transformation, transfection, etc. The most important techniques are polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Southern blotting, and Northern blotting. Viral therapy for cancer is also called oncolytic viral therapy. Oncolytic viral therapy can be used for the treatment of pancreatic cancer or pancreas cancer. 

Session 3: Plant Viral Infection and Prevention
Many plant pathogens, particularly fungi, can be controlled by the application of chemicals which interfere in some way with the metabolism of the invading pathogen, and so prevent or ameliorate disease. Unfortunately, these methods cannot be used so extensively to control plant viruses. Having few, if any, enzymes of their own, viruses depend either on enzymes already in host cells or on those that are induced as a result of infection. These enzymes are responsible for nucleic acid and protein synthesis, and chemical interruption of their activity disrupts similar enzymes essential for the normal functioning of cells.

Session 4: Veterinary Virology
Viruses are smaller and simpler in construction than unicellular microorganisms, and they contain only one type of nucleic acid—either DNA or RNA—never both. As viruses have no ribosomes, mitochondria, or other organelles, they are completely dependent on their cellular hosts for energy production and protein synthesis. They replicate only within cells of the host that they infect. Animal virology developed largely from the need to control viral diseases in humans and their domesticated animals. Viruses, like other infectious agents, enter the animal body through one of its surfaces. They then spread either locally on one of the body surfaces or through lymphatic and blood vessels to produce systemic infection.

Session 5Clinical and Diagnostic Virology
Diagnosis of any probable viral infection with the help of various tests such as specific, assorted, or conventional tests to identify the causative virus. Multiple methods are in use for laboratory diagnosis in probing viral infections, including serology, viral culture, antigen detection, and nucleic acid detection. Due to various developments in the technology, we see high-end and quite impressive immunologic and molecular diagnostic tests are developed to provide more accurate results and to detect the viruses- type, number and to identify their pathogenicity as well. This field provides specific recommendations for the diagnostic approaches to clinically important viral infections.
