Infectious Disease Symposium:
Innovative Approaches to Diagnostics and Research | 5-7/9/2023 | Bar Ilan University
The aim of this symposium is to address clinical and diagnostic issues regarding infectious diseases. The conference will cover early diagnosis and treatment of intrauterine infections, flaviviruses diagnosis and challenges, challenges in diagnosis of bacterial and parasitic infections, as well detecting the emergence of the next disease X. In addition, our goal is to establish a partnership plan for communication between the laboratory and clinicians on how to implement the testing in clinical practice along international evidence-based and expert opinion guidelines.
This conference is intended for laboratory directors, virologists, Internal medicine physicians, infectious diseases experts, clinical chemists, laboratory technologists, and biomedical engineers interested in learning strategies for developing and implementing high-sensitivity in vitro diagnostic tests.
