ESCV Virology

The European Society for Clinical Virology (ESCV) is a leading non-profit organization dedicated to advancing knowledge and research in the field of clinical virology. Founded in 1997, ESCV serves as a collaborative platform for virologists, scientists, and healthcare professionals focused on the diagnosis, management, and prevention of viral diseases. The Society actively promotes viral epidemiology, facilitating connections with global health organizations like the World Health Organization (WHO).

ESCV offers a range of resources, including training grants and travel grants for researchers, as well as reduced registration fees for its members who wish to participate in scientific meetings. Members also benefit from subscriptions to the Journal of Clinical Virology at a discounted rate. The Society organizes various events, workshops, and award programs to support its initiatives, including the prestigious Gardner Lectureship and the European Diagnostic Virology Award. With upcoming events like ESCV 2025 in Thessaloniki, Greece, the ESCV continues to be at the forefront of advancements in clinical virology.
