Live Q&A and Clinical Case Challenge
First Global Antibiotic Stewardship Forum
In 2020 we are going truly global. The first Global Antibiotic Stewardship Forum will be available to all medical and laboratory professionals from around the world. Virtual and for free.
We started off in September 2018 with the international "Consensus Meeting on Antibiotic Stewardship (ABS) with Procalcitonin" in Berlin, Germany. One year later we brought the second edition of the "Consensus Meeting" to Bangkok, Thailand. Each event resulted in the publication of a highly acclaimed consensus paper.Ref-1-2
This year, for the first time, everyone can log in on November 25, 2020 and participate live in the Q&A and Clinical Case Challenge. You can also watch the recorded forum at a later point, as free on-demand webinar.
