Dear Colleague,


The Infectious Diseases In Children symposium has been a valuable educational resource to pediatric physicians and nurses for more than 25 years. You’re invited to join 800 of your colleagues as you spend the weekend learning the latest advancements as interpreted by the finest pediatric infectious disease specialists.

This meeting has been consistently rated one of the top meetings in pediatrics. In 2013, our distinguished faculty will continue to provide attendees with features they value most, in addition to developing new clinically relevant topics that will help enhance your practice.

Preview what’s new for 2013:

  • Where No One Has Gone Before
    We will look at infections that are not transferred from typical child-to-child interactions, but from causes we see less frequently such as international travel, sexually transmitted infections and tattoos and piercings.
  • Vaccination: Protection from Infectious Diseases
    Experts will look at traditional aspects of vaccinations and also introduce “The Business of Vaccines,” so you can hear expert advice on how to make the best decisions when managing vaccinations within your day-to-day practice.
  • Looking Beyond the Commonplace
    As requested by past attendees, presenters will discuss less common infectious diseases as well as complications and challenges of more common pathogens, such as Group A Strep.
  • The Viral Challenge
    One of the biggest challenges in pediatric practice can be handling viruses. Experts will look at diagnostics, therapeutics and the febrile neonate.

Save $200 when you register early! Pay only $470 for 2 full days of CME education when you register now. And don’t forget to make your room reservation at The Waldorf Astoria New York by October 24.

I am excited for what the upcoming symposium has in store and look forward to seeing you this fall.

Sincerely,

David W. Kimberlin, MD
