SUMMARY:IDWeek 2019 Annual Conference
DESCRIPTION:Attendees include Richard Alm\, CARB-X Alliance Director. \nIDWeek is the joint annual meeting of the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA)\, Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America (SHEA)\, the HIV Medical Association (HIVMA)\, and the Pediatric Infectious Diseases Society (PIDS). \nAt IDWeek\, you will see familiar colleagues and new faces. IDWeek is a forum for health professionals of varied backgrounds to collaborate\, cooperate\, and learn from each other’s expertise. With so many common issues and challenges cutting across our four disciplines\, IDWeek provides an opportunity to learn from each other’s knowledge\, experience and expertise\, for the improvement of patient care and public health. \nThis is an inclusive meeting that offers access to internationally recognized leaders in the field and the opportunity to network with the most highly respected health professionals in infectious diseases\, including HIV. \nTo learn more\, click here. \nTo view the program\, click here. \nTo register for the conference\, click here.

SUMMARY:Live Webcast: Drug-Resistant Infections: Confronting an Escalating Crisis
DESCRIPTION:Antibiotics are a pillar of modern medicine. They have saved millions of lives and added some 20 years to human life expectancy. But as the use of antibiotics has increased\, so has the proliferation of antibiotic-resistant microbes that have adapted to survive most\, or all\, of today’s antibiotics. The CDC reports that two million people are infected with drug-resistant bacteria every year in the United States\, and the Review on Antimicrobial Resistance estimated that\, around the world\, 700\,000 people die of such infections annually. That number stands to increase: the Review predicts that\, by 2050\, drug resistance could be responsible for 10 million deaths a year. And while these numbers are dominated by bacterial infections\, fungal infections like Candida auris are also a threat\, especially to vulnerable patients in hospitals and nursing homes. \nDespite drug resistance growing\, the development of new antibiotics has slowed. How can policymakers help accelerate the pace of new drug development. How can all of us—doctors\, hospitals\, and patients\, as well as the agricultural sector—be better stewards of existing drugs? Forum panelists will examine the scope of this looming crisis and look at how changes in policy and practice can help us stay one step ahead of these superbugs. \nModerator\nDavid Freeman\, Editorial Director of NBC News MACH \nPanelists\nHelen Boucher\, Director\, Tufts Center for Integrated Management of Antimicrobial Resistance (CIMAR) and Professor of Medicine at Tufts University School of Medicine \nLauri Hicks\, Director\, Office of Antibiotic Stewardship\, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention \nMarc Lipsitch\, Professor of Epidemiology and Director of the Center for Communicable Disease Dynamics at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health \nKevin Outterson\, Executive Director of CARB-X (Combating Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria Biopharmaceutical Accelerator)\, and Professor of Law\, Boston University \nPart of: The Dr. Lawrence H. and Roberta Cohn Forums.\nPresented jointly with NBC News Digital \nLive webcast will be on Friday\, October 11\, 2019\, 12:00pm – 1:00pm ET.\nAn on-demand video will be posted after the event. \nTo learn more\, click here.

SUMMARY:Institut Pasteur - International Course on Antibiotics and Resistance (ICARE)
DESCRIPTION:Speakers include Erin Duffy\, CARB-X Chief of Research and Development. \nThe emergence and spread of bacteria resistant to many drug classes seriously threaten all branches of modern medicine. There is currently no course providing advanced instruction on antibiotics and resistance. The specific goal of ICARe is to bring leaders in academics and industry together with trained scientists at the dawn of their careers. Cutting-edge approaches for detection of resistance and antibiotic discovery\, chemical optimization\, and usage that minimizes the development of resistance will be examined. \nThe objective of the course is to train the next generation of scientists implicated in the study of bacterial resistance to antibiotics and the finding of new drugs. The faculty is composed of 40 internationally recognized scientists and physicians who have made important contributions to antibiotic development\, and infectious diseases and resistance management. Faculty will be in residence for a minimum of two days and accessible for informal interactions. Graduates will emerge with a state-of-the-art understanding of existing antibiotics: modes of action\, pharmacology\, toxicology\, mechanisms of resistance\, impact of antibiotics on human and other ecologies\, current approaches for mining chemical space for antimicrobial activity\, the process of advancing hits to leads\, the application of next generation nucleic acid-based technologies for antibiotic discovery and resistance detection\, and perhaps\, most importantly\, training and experience in thinking creatively and innovatively about solutions to the problem. The course aims to build an international cadre of collaborative\, well networked\, and highly trained specialists. \nTo learn more\, click here. \nTo register for the course\, please click here. \nPlease note that registration is currently open and will close on May 17th.
