• 2019 Conference

    The 11th International Conference on HHV-6 & 7 will be held in beautiful Quebec City, Canada June 23–26, 2019.

  • HHV-6 in the news!

    After years of very little interest by the scientific community, there has suddenly been a lot of interest in HHV-6A, which along with HHV-7, appears to be central to the progression of Alzheimer’s disease.

  • HHV-6 viremia impairs late T-cell reconstitution in HCT

    Dutch investigators found that hematopoietic cell transplant patients with high levels of HHV-6 viremia have reduced late immune reconstitution while early reconstitution was not affected.

  • High rate of HHV-6 end-organ disease and mortality in pediatric transplant patients

    Stanford investigators found that high levels of HHV-6 viremia following allogeneic stem cell transplants were associated end organ disease and greater non-relapse mortality.

ABOUT THE HHV-6 FOUNDATION

The HHV-6 Foundation in a non-profit entity founded to encourage scientific exchange between investigators and to provide pilot grants for promising scientific and clinical research on the under- appreciated viruses HHV-6A and HHV-6B.

The Foundation sponsors international conferences and supports scientists and clinicians seeking to clarify the role of the two HHV-6 viruses in disease. Since HHV-6A and HHV-6B can smolder in the brain and other organs without circulating in the peripheral blood or plasma, identifying chronic infection is a challenge.
