AMMI Canada – CACMID Annual Conference

The AMMI Canada – CACMID Annual Conference, hosted by the Association of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Disease Canada (AMMI Canada) and the Canadian Association for Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (CACMID), provides an interactive venue where experts in the fields of diagnostic microbiology, antimicrobial stewardship, infectious diseases, infection prevention and control, and public health meet. The conference attracts attendees from across Canada and internationally. As in previous years, the 2024 conference will provide updates on a variety of relevant topics to a diverse audience of clinicians, microbiologists, laboratory technologists, public health professionals, infection prevention and control practitioners, students, and residents.

In addition to the pre-meeting Trainees’ Day, the conference program will offer plenary sessions, state of the art clinical lectures, accredited co-developed learning activities, short oral presentations, poster presentations, case report symposium and an exhibit hall. The meeting will be a chance for attendees to showcase their research, as well as get up to speed with the latest in the areas of microbiology, infection control, adult and paediatric infectious diseases and related subjects. In addition to the scientific component, the meeting will provide opportunity for attendees to network, exchange ideas, and reconnect with colleagues!
