Infection Events

Oct 09
UK HBV MEETING
9 Oct 2023 – 10 Oct 2023

This is the first in what is hoped will be an annual series of meetings, which will have the same underlying philosophy as the existing annual UK HCV meetings (about to undergo its 21st manifestation) ie an informal gathering of anyone interested in/working on any aspect of HBV infection, in order to encourage closer cross-group and clinician-scientist collaboration, with most presentations on work in progress (ie not yet ready for presentation at more formal meetings) coming from students and trainees.

Details:
Dates: Monday 9th October (from 2pm) to Tuesday 10th October (all day) 2023
Venue: Milton Hill House, Milton Hill, Abingdon OX13 6AF
Registration: PhD students and below – £50; Post docs and above £100. This will include tea, dinner on Mon, overnight accommodation at the hotel, breakfast and lunch on Tues plus morning/ afternoon teas and coffees, and all conference facilities.


Content:
The sessions will be filled with presentations from the audience. We expect to be able to accommodate everyone who wishes to present, so we are not going to ask for formal abstracts, just titles of the work you would like to present, plus an indication as to what general category the work falls under (eg clinical consequences, molecular virology, epidemiology etc etc).

Antimicrobial Resistance – Genomes, Big Data and Emerging Technologies conference
13 Mar 2024 – 15 Mar 2024

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major challenge in our globalised world, and tackling it will take the combined resources and effort of researchers working across different disciplines. Technical advances in recent years continue to expand our ability to collect vast amounts of genomic information on pathogens, and a wealth of data is being collected in epidemiological and surveillance studies, including on the socio-economic burden of AMR.

Our 4th conference in this series will bring together basic researchers, clinicians, computer scientists, and policymakers interested in pathogen genomics, epidemiology, surveillance, and machine learning to explore the recent advances and current challenges of the field.

This year’s programme will once again focus on genomic evidence and how to implement it in clinical practice and policy for AMR control. The meeting will highlight the advances in machine learning, AI and computational tools to predict AMR. We will also discuss how to build an international genomics infrastructure to tackle AMR and emerging lessons from other global public health issues.

This conference will be a hybrid meeting – with onsite or virtual attendance. In addition to invited talks, the programme will include short oral presentations selected from abstracts, posters, poster pitches and networking breaks for further discussion.

Abstract and bursary deadline: 16 January 2024

Registration deadline: 13 February (in-person), 5 March 2024 (virtual)
