This is a big news week for infectious disease geeks such as myself, as the International Conference on Emerging Infectious Diseases (ICEID 2010) is underway in Atlanta, Georgia.
Last night , the keynotes were delivered (scheduled to appear were):
Thomas R. Frieden, Director, CDC
Anthony S. Fauci, Director, NIAID
Emerging Infectious Diseases: A
Perpetual Challenge
Keiji Fukuda, Special Advisor, WHO
A Pandemic in the 21st Century:
What Can We Learn
And today the full schedule begins, with presentations to continue through Wednesday.
The CDC’s EID Journal has published a pdf file of the Silde Sessions Abstracts. It provides brief summaries of dozens of presentations that will be delivered at this conference over the next three days.
Some of these abstracts are intriguing, and I’ll be highlighting a number of them this week.
Along the way, I’ve no doubt we’ll get additional coverage from medical reporters in attendance (something that, alas, I am not).
