The ASID Annual Scientific Meeting was a resounding success!
The theme of the 'changing face of infectious disease’  explored what disease will look like into the future - including discussions on new technology in the diagnosis and management of infectious disease, public health and the newly formed Australian CDC, and regional infectious disease in Australia and the Pacific.

This year's meeting saw 202 abstract submissions with 133 posters, 18 proffered paper presentations, and a new addition of 20 poster walks. With a program of 79 speakers over 17 sessions, we welcomed over 450 delegates from across the world.
