Science: Alan Aderem: Influenza and Immunology
Co-founder and director of Seattle's Institute for Systems Biology, Alan Aderem, PhD, is a global leader in immunology and cell biology research. An inaugural member of the Science Committee of the Global HIV Vaccine Enterprise, Dr. Aderem studies how our body's innate immune system responds to infectious disease, particularly global threats such as AIDS and the bird flu. His goal is new vaccines or improved treatments through understanding how our body's first line of defense detects and destroys (or fails to destroy) infectious threats. Join Dr. Aderem for a look inside the lab, as he discusses the latest discoveries about our immune system, human genetics and preparations against pandemic infectious diseases. Presented as part of the Seattle Science Lectures, with Pacific Science Center and University Book Store.
