Rationale

Humanity has faced numerous challenges as a result of viruses, including respiratory infections, cancer, neurological damage, and immunosuppression-related infections. Virological research has responded to this burden with vaccines, antivirals, and diagnosis innovation. Nevertheless, the COVID-19 pandemic has led to unprecedented attention in the virology field. A carefully balanced, evidence-based discourse is essential to address public concerns while maintaining and expanding the necessary research in virology. To respond rapidly to emerging viral threats, we must be able to apply up-to-date biological tools to viruses that will enable us to reduce the impact of future epidemics. The SIV-ISV National Congress represents the annual meeting for the Italian scientists working in the different areas of virology involving basic, clinical, and translational research. Moreover, the meeting will offer a superb platform for virologists, epidemiologists, pathologists, physicians, medical specialists, and all healthcare professionals to share and exchange best practices, knowledge, and experiences in order to establish networking and collaborations among worldwide academic and clinical professionals. 

In keeping with the tradition, the scientific structure of the Congress features different thematic sessions. The congress continues to provide a global forum with an interdisciplinary approach, featuring keynote talks, plenary sessions, workshops, debates, posters, and interactive discussions examining novel and exciting advancements in the management and treatment of various emerging and re-emerging viral diseases. 

We look forward to seeing you at the 8th National Congress of the Italian Society for Virology.
