What were the responses to your talking points? Were specific questions or concerns raised? : |
interesting, outstanding, very narrow specific subject in the field of molecular cell biology and virology. about how these proteins work and sequence-specifically recognize RNA bases. |
|
If you met staff members, please list their full names & positions. : |
No |
|
Please inform us if there are any follow up actions we need to talk with the members of the congress : |
No. There was no specific subject to follow up or talk with the members of the congress. Their research interests were completely different and the methods that were established for study of their subjects are not accessible for us. Making contact and collaborating with other researchers should be possible in order to open new opportunities for Iranian students. |

Your experiences about the travel processes(Providing ticket, accommodation,...) : |
It was good. |
|
Please give a briefing of your own observations and outcomes of the congress: : |
very interesting achievments and advanced progresses have been made in the field. Specially in the field of virus imaging, there were interesting progresses to image dinamics of viruses and their replication processes in living cells which enables us to study viral replications in detail. Moreover, the mechanism of viral oncogenesis and manipulation of cell signalling pathways by viruses as well as application of viral vectors in gene therapy were some of major subjects of the conference. In the field of antiviral therapies which was my aim to attend this conference, some achievments have been made in the field but there is a long way to go for future. |
