Even though we are still in the planning process, the program of the congress will focus on important aspects of current infectious diseases, including developments in food-borne infections, antimicrobial resistance, tuberculosis, vaccines, epidemiology of endemic diseases and public health issues in developing countries and especially in Central Asia and other developing countries. All these and related issues will be complemented by meet-the-expert and poster sessions.
