The Vaccine Development Center of San Antonio (VDCoSA) brings together researchers who support the development of vaccines at all stages: from A (antigens, adjuvants, antibodies) to V (vectors, variants, vaccination). After over a decade, you would think we wouldn’t still need to point out the importance of vaccines or vaccine development. But we do. Vaccine-preventable diseases have not gone away.

Take November 7, 2025 as your opportunity to gather with your most innovative colleagues and invite your collaborators to join us in San Antonio for the 2025 Annual VDCoSA Conference. Why not consider sharing those innovative ideas that you’ve been working on all year. Talk about biomedical breakthroughs you have in development and spark collaborations.

The 2025 VDCoSA Annual Conference will take place at the downtown UTSA campus, bringing together Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), Texas Biomedical Research Institute (TX Biomed), The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UT Health San Antonio), University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA), The University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston (UTMB), Texas Children’s Hospital, University of Texas at Austin, Rice University, Trinity University and more.

For out-of-town guests, we have blocked off several rooms at The Double Tree by Hilton; please contact cheryl.negrete@utsa.edu using the subject: VDCoSA Double Tree to inquire.

Submit your Abstract for a 10-minute talk and poster by FRIDAY, OCTOBER 24, 2025 at 5:00 PM.
