Join us from May 18 (Sunday) to May 23 (Friday), 2025, in the historic Menger Hotel, San Antonio, USA!

Poxvirus, Asfarvirus, and Iridovirus families possess large double-stranded DNA genomes and replicate in the cytoplasm. Some members of these families cause high-consequence diseases in humans and economically important animals, including zoonoses. The 2025 XXV International Poxvirus, Asfarvirus, and Iridovirus Conference will bring together researchers to discuss the latest advancements and breakthroughs in Poxviruses, Asfarviruses, and Iridoviruses. The topics covered in this context include virus entry, genome replication and gene expression, trafficking, genomics/transcriptomics/proteomics, morphogenesis and assembly, exit, virus-host interactions, immunity, immune evasion, pathogenesis, vaccines, antivirals, diagnostics, virus vectors, oncolytic virotherapy, and emerging and reemerging viruses.
