Building on the success of the last three Vaccine Technology conferences, we are very excited to announce that Vaccine Technology V is scheduled for June 8-13, 2014 and will take place in Playa del Carmen, Mexico.

This conference will give us the opportunity to build on the strong momentum established at Vaccine Technology III. Our goal is to gather together many of the key leaders in the field to discuss and review progress made in generating new vaccine targets, new technologies for vaccines and new adjuvants. We will also discuss key strategic issues such as how to generate a new vaccine very quickly and also how to make vaccines more available to the developing world.

Engineering Conferences International
Engineering Conferences International (ECI) is a not-for-profit, global engineering conferences program, originally established in 1962 that provides opportunities for the exploration of problems and issues of concern to engineers and scientists from many disciplines.

The format of the conference provides morning and late afternoon or evening sessions in which major presentations are made. Poster sessions will be scheduled for evening discussion as well. Available time is included during the afternoons for ad hoc meetings, informal discussions, and/or recreation. This format is designed to enhance rapport among participants and promote dialogue on the development of the meeting. We believe the conferences have been instrumental in generating ideas and disseminating information to a greater extent than is possible through more conventional forums.
