Abstract:
Located on the traditional and ancestral homelands of the Arapaho, Cheyenne, and Ute Nations, Colorado State University's Mountain Campus hosted the 25th Annual Rocky Mountain Virology Association meeting. The three-day event, held from 26 September to 28 September 2025, welcomed 152 participants focused on the following topics: viruses, prions, immunology, transmission, structural biology, and vector biology. This year's Randall Jay Cohrs Keynote Presentation summarized ongoing research on viral glycoproteins in relation to viral entry and assembly. Understanding the role of viral glycoproteins is essential in vaccine and antiviral development for enveloped RNA viruses. Alongside rigorous scientific discourse and networking, attendees made the most of their time by hiking amidst beautiful fall colors, wildlife, and young aspens starting the forest anew. On behalf of the Rocky Mountain Virology Association, this report summarizes select presentations from the 25th annual meeting.
