Welcome
Message from the WCVII/ICWO President
Dear Friends and
Colleagues,
It is a privilege
to warmly welcome all of you attending the Eighth
World Congress on Vaccines, Immunisation and Immunotherapy (WCVII) in Barcelona, Spain. We
created in 1997 this Congress,
open to all colleagues
from academia, industry, hospitals, research
institutes, biotech firms, governmental services and
international organisations interested in promoting the science, research and expertise in
vaccinology and immunotherapy. For fifteen years our Congress has been the example of medical and scientific
global international strategic cooperation. The World Congress on Vaccines, Immunisation
and Immunotherapy is the academic global congress established by
scholars. The WCVII is the longest running international forum for
the latest research developments in the fields of
vaccine, immunisation and immune therapy.
The scientific
programme of the Congress is facilitating research contacts and
sharing information available to develop new, highly immunogenic and
safe vaccines, immunotherapeutics and to discuss vaccination procedures, regulations and schedules.
Specialists from all regions of Spain and the
world are very welcome to meet in Barcelona at WCVII
2012.
Today, sophisticated genetic engineering technology
has revolutionised the whole approach to producing vaccines and their delivery,
resulting in optimal immunogenic response benefiting in vaccinees. There
is no doubt about the effectiveness of
vaccines to prevent and control human and animal infectious
diseases. With several plenary sessions and symposia, the WCVII offers variety and
quality to all participants. You
will benefit
from the high scientific
and medical standards of the
Congress and enjoy
the attractive Mediterranean city of Barcelona,
full of history, art, vibrant life and friendly people.
The organisers are very pleased to work with you for
a successful Eighth World Congress on Vaccines, Immunisation and
Immunotherapy.
