The 6th International Conference on Colonic Spirochaetal Infections in Animals and Humans
April 24, 2013 —
The International Conference on Colonic Spirochaetes in Animals and Humans 2013 is a unique opportunity for scientists and PhD students working in the field of spirochaetal infections to meet, exchange information and broaden their knowledge base in relation to these important pathogens. It is also the leading forum designed to explore novel control strategies to improve animal and human healthcare in relation to spirochaetal infections. The conference will take place on: 5 and 6 September 2013 at the University of Surrey, Guildford, Surrey.
This conference is normally held every 2 years and is generally over-subscribed because there are only 100 delegate places available. In 2013 this is especially true because the last conference was held in Leon in June 2009. As a consequence of the predicted demand, all those interested are encouraged to register quickly. Additional information is available online at http://www.surrey.ac.uk/spirochaetes2013
