DDLS Symposium on Data-Driven Environmental Monitoring of Infectious Diseases
October 7, 2024 @ 12:00 – October 8, 2024 @ 15:00 Europe/UPPSALA
The DDLS research area Epidemiology and Biology of Infection invites you to its second in-person symposium. The symposium will focus on promoting and enhancing data-driven environmental assessment for infectious diseases (including antibiotic resistant bacteria) across various settings using diverse approaches.
The symposium will feature both local and international high-profile speakers in the field and will cover topics ranging from sewage surveillance, monitoring of airborne infectious agents, as well as environmental and animal disease monitoring for pathogens, antimicrobial resistance and harmful substances. The symposium will also include more technical aspects of implementations as well as data-driven advancements and challenges.
There will also be a possibility to submit abstracts for short talks!
Please join us for this one-and-a-half-day symposium on 7-8 October 2024, in Navet, SciLifeLab’s meeting place in Uppsala, to meet the research area Fellows, the Expert Group and excellent researchers of the area. Engage in discussions, enjoy refreshments, and network with experts across a range of infectious disease monitoring topics!
Registration opens soon.
