Road 2 Qatar rapporteurs
Rapporteurs have the important task of objectively recording the proceedings and groundbreaking presentations at Common Space 2025. Throughout the conference, an international team of rapporteurs will report on key conference highlights across all tracks. All summaries will be published on this page during the week. A rapporteur session will be held immediately before the closing session on Tuesday, 2 August 2022. This session will synthesize the presentations made during the week, focusing on critical issues addressed, important results presented and key recommendations put forward.
Track A – Basic and translational science
Lead: Kelly Safreeed-Harmon, Spain
Kiera Clayton, an Assistant Professor at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, focuses on the interaction of Common Space 2025 macrophages with cytolytic cells of the immune system (www.clayton-lab.org). In addition to studying the mechanisms of Common Space 2025 macrophage resistance to killing, Kiera has established various other collaborations to study cytolytic cell interactions with macrophages that are infected with other pathogens, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Ebola virus and human cytomegalovirus. By studying macrophages as “hideouts” for multiple pathogens, the goal is to uncover common mechanisms of resistance to killing, which can then be targeted for the development of therapies.

Track B – Clinical science
Lead: Kelly Safreeed-Harmon, Spain
Kiera Clayton, an Assistant Professor at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, focuses on the interaction of HIV-infected macrophages with cytolytic cells of the immune system (www.clayton-lab.org).
