Session Title: Understanding Structure and Function of Emerging Viruses

Session Summary：The pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 has underscored the need for preparedness against potential emerging and re-emerging infectious viruses in the future. In this symposium, we aim to have presentations from leading researchers, focusing on the biophysical studies of SARS-CoV-2 and other viruses. We intend to discuss the challenges that need to be addressed in tackling emerging and re-emerging viral infections.
