Dear Friends and Colleagues,

On behalf of the organizing committee, it is both an honor and a privilege to announce the convening of the 6th European Congress on Infectious Diseases in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, on October 03-04, 2024.

The main theme of the 2024 Congress will be “Defeating the Invisible Foe: Advancing Infectious Disease Control and Research”, in line with the urgent need to globally pursue the fight against microscopic pathogens and the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance to our current medicine arsenal.

The Congress will provide an excellent opportunity to bring together, in a face-to-face format, leading experts and early-career researchers from all over the world to present and discuss their research results at the basic and clinical levels in the spectrum of infectious diseases. One of our goals is to facilitate discussion among scientists and promote networking between professionals. We strongly believe that a live academic meeting such as this one offers the best approach to ensure that participants gain new knowledge and collaborations that will be profitable for their research.   

The Congress will be held in the beautiful city of Amsterdam, one of the best capital cities in Europe that is rich in culture, art and history, and is well known for its canals, bicycles, and cozy restaurants.

Come to join us at the 2024 Congress. We are certain that your participation or presentation will contribute significantly to its success.

We look forward to seeing you at the Congress.

EMJ Microbiology & Infectious Diseases is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal committed to publishing the highest quality medical research concerning all aspects of the prevention, diagnosis, and management of infectious diseases in humans.

The journal is published annually, six weeks after the European Congress of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ECCMID), and features highlights from this congress, alongside interviews with experts in the field, reviews of abstracts presented at the congress, as well as in-depth features on congress sessions. The journal also covers advances within the clinical and pharmaceutical arenas by publishing sponsored content from congress symposia, which is of high educational value for healthcare professionals. This undergoes rigorous quality control checks by independent experts and the in-house editorial team.

EMJ Microbiology & Infectious Diseases also publishes peer-reviewed research papers, review articles, and case reports in the field. In addition, the journal welcomes the submission of features and opinion pieces intended to create a discussion around key topics in the field and broaden readers’ professional interests. The journal is managed by a dedicated editorial team that adheres to a rigorous double-blind peer-review process, maintains high standards of copy editing, and ensures timely publication.

EMJ Microbiology & Infectious Diseases endeavours to increase knowledge, stimulate discussion, and contribute to a better understanding of infectious diseases.  Our focus is on research that is relevant to all healthcare professionals in the field. We do not publish veterinary science papers or laboratory studies not linked to patient outcomes. We have a particular interest in topical studies that advance knowledge and inform of coming trends affecting clinical practice in microbiology and infectious diseases.

Topics covered in the journal include:

• Antimicrobial resistance and stewardship
• Sepsis
• Sexually transmitted infections
