Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of GWB Healthcare and the International Center for

Integrated Health Technology (ICIHT), it is our honour to invite you

all to the Africa Conference on Infectious Diseases, Emergency Risks

and Travel Medicine (ACIDER-TM 2012). ACIDER-TM 2012 will take place

at convention

http://acidertm2012.eventbrite.com/

Opportunities are also available for those interested in making

presentations during the conference. Kindly register first as an

attendee,

then forward your abstracts to: info@...

The congress will focus on vaccine development, the prevention of

infectious diseases such as HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria, as

well

as others that affect historically underserved populations; the

development, use, and sustainability of diagnostic tools and

technologies; maternal, reproductive and child health; advocacy for

raising awareness and promoting leadership for these issues; educating

all institutional

staff on the impact of infectious disease in correctional facilities,

educating correctional healthcare staff about security issues that

affect correctional health care; educating security staff about the

importance of infectious disease control and correctional healthcare,

offering tools, including best practice models for care, treatment,

and prevention, for participants to emulate in their institutions and

community programs;

promoting collaboration among institutional security, health care, and

community program staff to improve the control of infectious disease

in

the inmate population and identifying and overcoming barriers to

infectious disease screening, care, and control. As you know,

Infectious diseases continually surprise and challenge us. New

diseases emerge, known diseases spread and common diseases become

incredibly resistant to available drugs. As professionals in the field

we need to be smart, creative and vigilant in order to meet the

evolving challenges. Indeed we can only succeed in this task by

working together, by actively exchanging ideas, by generously sharing

resources and by constantly collaborating. We are certain that the

Congress will be a superb opportunity for you to meet colleagues,

share knowledge and create productive partnerships

The purpose of ACIDER-TM 2012 is to promote all of these interactive

activities among thousands of international experts and practitioners

to

the highest possible degree. GWB Healthcare and its Center for

Integrated health Technology is very excited that the Launch of the

1st Partners

Forum on Infectious Diseases Eradication and the 1st Africa Travel

Medicine (ATM) conference will hold in conjunction with ACIDER-TM.

This

educational program is being hosted by GWB Healthcare Travel Medicine Network.

We are honored to recognize the collaboration of the Imo state

government and the cooperation of our colleagues from societies

representing

individuals from countries in Africa and elsewhere with great enthusiasm.

The final program of the 1st ACIDER-TM 2012 will include 30 Plenary

Lectures, more than 40 Symposia, 30 sessions devoted to oral

presentation of selected abstracts, meet-the-expert sessions and

poster sessions, tours and sightseeing.

With planning for the Congress well underway, we encourage you to mark

your calendar so that you join others for a fantastic meeting in April

2012. Thanks immensely. Download a copy of the official Congress brochure
