- Abstract:
Following the inaugural Epidemics1 Conference in Asilomar, USA in 2008, and the second conference Epidemics2 in Athens, Greece in 2009, both highly successful meetings, the organizers are pleased to announce that The Third International Conference on Infectious Disease Dynamics, EPIDEMICS ³, will take place in Boston, USA, from 29th November to 2nd December 2011.
We will convene to share another three days of intense dialogue on our ideas, data, insight, models and methods related to epidemic studies. Our invited speakers already reflect some of the breadth of what we hope to cover with talks on:
•Infectious disease in conservation
•The policy challenges to reducing the global burden of infection and epidemic disease
•The evolutionary response of pathogens to our interventions
•Extracting information from the deluge of sequence data
•Emerging pathogens, disease and infection
•Pandemic outbreaks and predictive modeling
Epidemics3 is a wide-ranging conference that broadly deals with infectious disease dynamics; to include field and laboratory studies as well as modeling.
