Abstract

The Keystone Symposium on Cell Biology of Virus Entry, Replication, and Pathogenesis held in Taos, New Mexico February 29 to March 5, 2000 to a large degree fulfilled its purpose to facilitate interdisciplinary exchange of information. The Keynote Address by Sir John J. Skehel (National Institute for Medical Research, London) initiated discussion on the antigenic analyses of influenza virus hemagglutinins.
