For decades, Asia Pacific countries have played a leading worldwide role in research in antimicrobial drug discovery, molecular diagnosis and infectious diseases. The Solutions for Drug-Resistant Infections (SDRI 2017) conference is a multi-disciplinary scientific conference for the Asia Pacific region focused on Solutions for Drug-Resistant Infections. This inaugural conference theme is New Drugs for Drug-Resistant Infections. The conference will take place at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre in Australia from 3-5 April 2017.

The program is expected to attract 400 international participants and will provide a fantastic forum for researchers and industry representatives working in the space of microbiology, virology, parasitology, genomics, pharmacology and medicinal chemistry, to network and discuss new ways to solve the global challenge of drug-resistant infections. Our goal for SDRI 2017 is to lead a concerted discussion to set three priorities and guide research efforts towards global solutions for drug resistance research.

The conference is organised by The University of Queensland’s Institute for Molecular Bioscience Centre for Superbug Solutions where finding new therapeutics, diagnosis and monitoring of drug-resistant infections is one of our strategic priorities, and chaired by Professor Matthew Cooper, Director of the Centre for Superbug Solutions and Professor Jian Li from Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute.

Session themes:

  1. Antimicrobial resistance

  2. Antimicrobial drug discovery

  3. Improvements to existing anti-infective agents and repurposing

  4. New drug targets

  5. Alternate therapies

  6. Vector control and vaccines

  7. International models and funding

  8. Navigating the pipeline

  9. Panel - top 3 priorities to guide AMR research

Register to attend SDRI 2017 by 9 December 2016 for Early-bird registration. IUPAC members and affiliates of IUPAC will receive 10% off your registration rate.
