• Infection prevention and the healthcare environment
• Hot topics in antibiotic resistance
• Hospital–acquired pneumonia
• Next generation sequencing in microbiology
• IPC and antibiotic policy in the Nordic countries – luck of the north or transferrable policy?
• Big data
• Debate: AMR and IPC – was C. difficile all about quinolones?
• Gram negative bacteraemias
• The three top papers that have influenced infection prevention practice: USA vs. Europe vs. The Rest of the World. The audience decides
The Programme has been awarded 18 CPD Credits by the Royal College of Pathologists and 16 European CME credits by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME).
