Event Description
The Australasian Society for Infectious Diseases will hold this two-day meeting to bring together clinicians, microbiologists, pharmacists, infection control nurses and researchers from Asia, Australia and New Zealand to provide a state of the art update on the issues of Gram-Negative "Superbugs". International and local speakers will review novel therapeutic approaches, the importance of the microbiology laboratory, dosing optimisation and the use of combination therapy and innovative approaches to infection control. This is the first meeting of its kind.
 
Why come to this meeting?
Antibiotics form the cornerstone of modern medicine but their use is now under threat from the rapid growth in antimicrobial resistance.

Infectious Disease physicians and trainees, microbiologists, (including virologists, mycologists, parasitologists), tropical medicine specialists, communicable disease specialists, travel medicine (specialists and GPs with interest), infection control specialists and nurses, public health medicine specialists, laboratory scientists and researchers.
