Dr. Marian Laderoute is currently a voluntary consultant for ISM-Immune System Management in Ottawa. She was the Lab Director from 2011 to 2020 where she was inspired to publish the new immunosenescence paradigm. Prior to this she was Research Manager of the Blood Zoonotics Unit at the Public Health Agency of Canada when she discovered HERV-K102 as a protector foamy virus of humans (internationally patented but now abandoned). She obtained her Ph.D. in Medical Sciences-Immunology at the University of Alberta in 1991. She published a unified theory of cancer in 1994 based on her Ph.D. discovery of the 67 Kd AFP receptor/binding protein in tumors and macrophages, which attempted to explain how the malignant phenotype of tumors related to immunosuppression of the host via active AFP. While this was considered heretical at the time, new evidence with CCR5 blockers and knowledge of reversible EMT now suggests she may have been correct.

Dr. Ahed Alkhatib has finished his PhD from Cambell State University in 2011. I am currently working as a clinical researcher at faculty of medicine, Jordan University of Science and technology. Over the time, I have published more than 200 articles in various medical fields including neurosciences, pharmacology, and diabetes. My approaches in research include the involvement of philosophy of science in research which gives looking, and thinking in depth. I have developed several hypotheses in medicine such as the role of white matter in initiating diseases such as diabetes. In microbiology, I have demonstrated that prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells are similar in producing cell cycle proteins which can participate in autoimmunity diseases.

Setting medical hypotheses and writing book in different fields, of which two books have already been written and distributed in the world market. Other interests include: -Neurology -Pharmacology -Philosophy of science -Tumor research -Behavioral biology -Emergency medicine

Alfredo Berzal-Herranz received his PhD in Molecular Biology from the Autónoma University of Madrid (1990). After a short stay in the Department of Microbiology, at the Uppsala University (Sweden), he moved to the Department of Microbiology, College of Medicine, University of Vermont (USA), as Postdoctoral Researcher. In 1993 he returned to Granada, Spain, joining the Instituto de Parasitología y Biomedicina “López-Neyra” (IPBLN) belonging to the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), where he established his own research group and Chair the Department of Molecular Biology. Since April 1997 to November 2005, he was the Deputy Director of the IPBLN-CSIC and Director since November 2005 to March 2014. He has authored around 90 research articles and book chapters and edited two special research issues. He serves or has served as Editorial Board Member of more than 15 research journals. His group is currently interested in understanding the structure/function relationship of viral RNA genomes. Pursuing the identification of the molecular mechanisms used by the RNA viruses to store all necessary genetic information and studying the potential use of genomic structural RNA domains as potential antiviral targets. Further, his group is interested in the design and characterization of antiviral RNA molecules.

He is an Associate Professor in the Department of Medicine, McGill University and a Senior Investigator at the Lady Davis Institute for Medical Research. He has authored more than 130 publications and has served on several grant review panels. His research focus on the molecular understanding of the positive and negative regulation of antiviral immunity and to manipulate the innate immune response as a therapeutic strategy to control virus infection and cancer. His current interests include the use of small molecules that mimic viral RNA to inhibit Pathogenic virus infection.

Dr Kedzierska trained as a viral immunologist and has over 14 years of experience in researching the immune responses to acute (influenza) and chronic (HIV) viral infections. Her expertise in both the murine system and human settings allows her to translate any of the key findings obtained from an easily manipulated mouse model into human viral immunology. Her PhD work undertaken at the Burnet Institute in Melbourne has provided an important contribution to our knowledge of AIDS pathogenesis by proposing the mechanisms of why HIV-infected patients develop specific opportunistic infections as their disease progresses, ultimately the cause of their death. Her PhD work was recognised by prestigious awards, including a 2001 Premier’s Commendation for Medical Research, 2002 Monash University Mollie Holman Doctoral Medal for the Best PhD Thesis and the NHMRC Peter Doherty Postdoctoral Fellowship to pursue her postdoctoral research with Nobel Laureate Professor Peter Doherty. She joined Professor Doherty’s laboratory upon his return to the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Melbourne in July 2002. During the four-year postdoctoral position she has further contributed to the field of viral immunology and developed her own research interests related to the cellular and molecular aspects of CD8+ T cell immunity to influenza virus infection. After being awarded the NHMRC RD Wright Fellowship and a NHMRC Project Grant, she established her independent research group in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology. She aims to understand how immunological T cell memory is generated, whether it is feasible to elicit immunity towards escape viral variants, and how T cell receptor repertoire relates to T cell phenotype, function and viral escape.
