Over the next two days you will discuss in the working groups the current state of the art of research on pandemic influenza and identify gaps in research on influenza virology, immunology, diagnostics, antiviral drugs, surveillance/transmission, vaccines and their production, and strategies to contain outbreaks and prevent spread. We are seeking in the workshops to develop and refine everyone's best thinking on the most glaring research gaps for each topic and develop ideas for how to progress in closing those gaps in the short and long term.
