Event description:
Over the past decade, emerging threats have challenged our public health response systems around the world and brought into focus the limitations of both our current methods of detection and coordinated efforts to respond. Latest examples include the Zika and Ebola viruses that resulted in a drastic reduction in international travel and consequently had a severe economic impact. Traditional methods to diagnose a range of infectious diseases have been far too slow and cumbersome. The Third Annual Advanced Diagnostics for Infectious Disease conference will cover critical topics such as improved methods for diagnosing, monitoring/managing infectious disease outbreaks and emerging pathogens.
