Interest:
Hualan Chen is a virologist whose research focus is the study of influenza and the development of vaccines against this virus. She was offered a professorship in 2002 at the Harbin Veterinary Research Institute of CAAS and was appointed as the Director of the National Avian Influenza Reference Laboratory. Hualan Chen has developed a series of vaccines for H5N1 avian influenza and over 100 billion doses of the vaccines have been used in China and other countries, including Vietmam, Mongolia, and Egypt. She also performs extensive basic research to understand the countries, including Vietmam, Mongolia, and Egypt. She also performs extensive basic research to understand the evolution and the genetic basis of the virulence and host range of H5N1 avian influenza viruses and has published many papers on avian influenza research in international, peer-reviewed journals, including Science, PNAS, PLoS Pathogens and Journal of Virology.

Interest:
Our major interest and our aim is to cure the cancer patients and also to control the viral disease especial the hepatitis B or C disease. It is possible because that we have a super interferon by which the therapeutic effect for hepatitis B in clinic has reached 62% and hope to be more higher, while the regular protocol for hepatitis B disease treatment is about 30%.
For cancer therapy, super interferon has rescued many cancer patients. In experimental mice model, the targeting dual gene-virotherapy can eliminate all the xenograft tumor in many diverse cancers. Therefore it is possible for us to complete our aim.

Website: https://globalhealth.duke.edu/people/wang-linfa
Interest:
Dr Wang’s early research was at the Monash Centre for Molecular Biology and Medicine. In 1990, he joined the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), Australian Animal Health Laboratory (AAHL) where he played a leading role in identifying bats as the natural host of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) virus. His research then extended from bat-borne viruses to better understand virus-bat interaction and how bats co-exist with a large number of viruses without developing clinical diseases. His recent research contributions include developing antibody based serological tests to detect the SARS-CoV-2 virus, responsible for the COVID-19 outbreak, and the early and successful culture of the virus from an infected patents sample. His team is currently focusing on research into the origin of SARS-CoV-2, developing assays which can better assess vaccine efficacy in the context of a potential immunity passport strategy and novel vaccination strategy to broaden protective immunity against future variants and emerging SARS-related coronaviruses.
