Welcome to the 8th International Healthcare Infection Society (HIS) Conference and Federation of Infection Societies (FIS) annual conference
Awarded 20 CPD credits from the Royal College of Pathologists and 18 European CME credits (ECMEC) by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME)
The FIS/HIS Conference is a unique collaboration between all organisations who have an interest in infection in its broadest sense in the UK (FIS), combined with the biannual HIS International Conference. HIS is returning to Liverpool, one of Britain’s most vibrant and cosmopolitan cities, after the very successful 2010 HIS International Conference. The 2012 event will again be located in the BT Convention Centre, a purpose built, state of the art facility situated in the heart of Liverpool along the historic, world heritage waterfront.
The HIS conference takes place every two years and is the major international conference focusing on infection control attracting leading world experts in healthcare associated infections as speakers and delegates. As well as attracting accreditation from both the ACCME and the Royal College of Pathologists, it will provide a unique opportunity for everyone involved to learn the latest developments in this rapidly expanding and changing field.
The meeting is driven by an excellent scientific programme covering topics such as infection prevention and control, epidemiology and surveillance, decontamination, new technologies, infectious diseases, laboratory microbiology and antimicrobial agents to name a few. There will also be an opportunity for delegates to exchange views and ideas about the latest developments in nosocomial and hospital acquired / healthcare associated infections - always such an important part of this meeting for all parties.
We hope that you will consider supporting this prestigious International Conference, and look forward to seeing in Liverpool
