AMMI Canada and CACMID are pleased to invite you to THE Canadian annual meeting in infectious diseases and microbiology. The 2019 AMMI Canada – CACMID Annual Conference will take place in Ottawa, ON, from April 3-6, and promises another great program!
New to this year’s annual conference, in lieu of an event app, we have created an Online Conference Program. The online program is made up of all session details. All sessions identify the speaker, the objectives along with the location and time of the session.
Under the Information tab, delegates can find speaker biographies, find usefully floorplans to help navigate the hotel along with information on the Westin and Ottawa. Delegates can view the entire program on a single page, drill down into individual sessions to see the list of abstracts for each session and then view the individual abstracts, or download abstracts and sessions details at the click of a button.
NEW: ONLINE PROGRAM
The Final Program is available. It can be viewed HERE
