What is ICID?
The international society for infectious diseases ISID will hold the 19th edition of its biennial international congress on infectious diseases in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. With more than 2500 participants from around 100 countries, it is the world’s largest congress on infectious diseases.
The 19th ICID features an expanded range of sessions by bringing the One Health aspect to the world of clinical infectious diseases and microbiology. The One Health Concept recognizes the commonality of human, environmental and animal health and is critical to understanding, managing and preventing emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases globally. From antimicrobial resistance, Nipah virus and rabies to the effects of climate change, loss of biodiversity, and political instability on infectious diseases, looking through the One Health lens will provide valuable insights across species and specialties. Connect with colleagues from a wide range of countries and specialties to exchange knowledge, create new ideas and start collaborations.
