Singapore Society for Microbiology and Biotechnology (SSMB)

The theme of this Congress is “Tropical infectious diseases and vectors in a vibrant and ever - changing environment”. In recent years, the emergence of new diseases and the reemergence of the old ones have significantly impacted public health in the region. Lately, outbreaks of chikungunya and 5^th human malaria parasite - Plasmodium knowlesi in this region and dissemination to other parts of the world highlight the global importance of tropical diseases.

The Congress will gather local and foreign experts who will present their latest scientific findings on tropical infectious diseases that will stimulate interactive discussions and promote collaborations, with the aim of reducing the burden of these diseases in the region.  

We welcome your participation and look forward to sharing with you a successful and informative Congress in Singapore.
