It has been 25 years since the discovery of Adherent Invasive E.coli (AIEC) associated with Crohn's disease and intestinal inflammation across species.

This conference will celebrate the 25th anniversary of AIEC by bringing together leading researchers from all corners of the globe to present and discuss the many facets of AIEC.

The agenda ranges from how to define an AIEC, disease associations, mechanistic insights into how AIEC proliferates and incites inflammation and neoplasia, to strategies to combat AIEC. With multiple therapeutic trials targeting AIEC currently in...

“Combating Multidrug-Resistant Superbugs by Targeting the Host-Pathogen Interaction”

Abstract:

Antibiotic resistance presents an ever increasing challenge to the public health with a dearth of new drugs in the development pipeline. A single-minded focus on direct antimicrobial activities overlooks the fact that significant infections are really a disease of the host-pathogen interaction. Indeed, before the patient has even seen a doctor, their infection is already being treated by multiple antimicrobials - namely the cellular and molecular components of the innate...
