Today at our booth
The morning kicked off looking at a year in infection control and excellent talks followed including tuberculosis and vaccine development. At our booth we had some lovely delegates, who had signed up last year, drop by with some great feedback and also Expert Panelist Glenn Tillotson paid us a visit, a reminder that if you haven’t already signed up, you should!
Remember to find us at booth #150, or follow out Twitter updates @IDHubFSG.
