ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
Opinion leaders, researchers and clinicians from around the world provide leadership in STI/HIV prevention, diagnosis and treatment. The ISSTDR Québec 2011 will bring them together to share their latest research results, innovation, good practice and expertise. As the theme of the conference is "From research to intervention: successes and challenges", many sessions at the conference will focus on the use of research results to inform the implementation of better and more efficient clinical and public health practices. The meeting will also focus on rigorous scientific evaluation of clinical and preventive interventions and will emphasize what work best in these fields.
Five main tracks will guide the preparation of the scientific program.
1. Epidemiology track
2. Social and behavioural aspects of prevention track
3. Clinical sciences track
4. Basic sciences track
5. Health services and policy track
