Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the Local Scientific and Organising Committee, it is our great pleasure to invite you to the 27th Annual ESPID Meeting, to be held June 9-13, 2009 in Brussels, Belgium.
The main theme of the meeting will be “Serious Bacterial Infections”. The high quality Scientific Program currently evolving through collaboration between local and international experts will open new insights and discussions into epidemiology, diagnosis, prevention, treatment, and clinical presentation of important paediatric diseases. Original contributions by clinicians, researchers and all medical professionals with an interest in paediatrics are highly welcome.
Brussels, the bilingual and multicultural capital city of Belgium, a place rich in European history with a free and easy lifestyle and stunning architecture will provide an ideal location for what promises to be an exciting and memorable meeting.
We look forward to welcoming you to Brussels for ESPID 2009.
Philippe Lepage Anne Vergison
Chair, Organising Committee Chair, Scientific Committee
