COMBACTE at ECCMID 2021
This year is the 31st European Congress of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ECCMID). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic ESCMID has switched to a full online congress. COMBACTE participated at ECCMID for 8 years, sharing valuable science that has been produced. This year COMBACTE will be present through the results and science our colleagues will be sharing at the different sessions such as live oral sessions or E-posters.
Below you can see an overview of COMBACTE abstracts during ECCMID 2021. We are proud to have 19 COMBACTE abstracts at the conference: 6 from COMBACTE-NET, 10 from COMBACTE-MAGNET, 1 from COMBACTE-CARE and 2 from COMBACTE-CDI. A lot of science has been produced in COMBACTE as several of our studies completed recruitment and the first results have been issued. We are very much looking forward to share this science with the online attendees at the 31st ECCMID.
