HKU-PRP Researcher Presented at World Flu Day 2026 Symposium

Dr. Wuji Zhang recently attended the World Flu Day 2026 Symposium, held in Melbourne, Australia, between 29-30 October 2026. At the symposium, Dr. Zhang presented findings from his recent publication on the molecular features of B cells following influenza A and B virus infection and inactivated influenza vaccination.

The World Flu Day 2026 Symposium is a major international scientific event bringing together leading experts in influenza research from Australia, China, Japan and beyond. Hosted jointly by the Doherty Institute and the WHO Collaborating Centre for Reference and Research on Influenza, the symposium highlighted the latest advances in influenza epidemiology, transmission, virology, immunology and vaccines.

The symposium also provided an opportunity for HKU-PRP to reconnect with collaborators at the University of Melbourne, including Nobel Laureate Professor Peter Doherty and Professor Katherine Kedzierska.
