We are pleased to welcome you to ISHEID, the International Symposium on HIV and Emerging Infectious Diseases.

The understanding of HIV and hepatitis infections continues to grow rapidly, especially regarding our ability to develop novel prevention and therapeutic strategies that will lead to the reduction of new infections. The burden of non-communicable diseases in HIV infected subjects implicates a multidisciplinary approach of the infection and the need of close interactions with specialists from other disciplines.

ISHEID 2021 dedicates a privileged place to state-of-the-art presentations, as well as to debates among experienced and younger investigators regarding new data and their implications.
This event has invited lectures by European and international leaders, many oral abstract and poster presentations, and educational workshops, as well as overviews of comorbidities by specialists of each field.

It is unique in its approach, as it engages basic scientists and clinicians from the HIV, hepatitis and emerging infectious diseases fields, as well as leading scientists involved in comorbidities.
We wish you a pleasant congress.
