21st to 23rd May 2022, Basel, Switzerland.
It is a great pleasure to invite you to the 18th Conference of the ISTM that will be held in Basel, Switzerland, from 21-25 May, 2023.
After several years of COVID-19 impacting on our ability to meet face-to-face, we are looking forward to meeting each other once again, while having some virtual options. After a long wait, what a wonderful place to meet again – Basel, Switzerland.
Basel is the cultural and historic capital of Switzerland and home of the famous Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute, which has recently expanded into an amazing sustainable four story headquarter building in Allschwil on the outskirts of Basel.
The Scientific Program Committee led by David Hamer has built a superb program that addresses many of the contemporary issues in travel medicine and migrant health. We hope we can share this wonderful event with you. We also look forward to your participation and discussions. There will be state-of-the art lectures, prominent speakers, workshops and debates, ample opportunities to discuss controversies in travel medicine, as well as free oral communications on latest research findings.
The Local Organising Committee led by Christoph Hatz has ensured that participants of CISTM18 will engage closely with Basel and its culture and history. You won’t be disappointed by their efforts.
