An Interdisciplinary Research Centre at the University of Cambridge
 

Registrations are OPEN for the next Cambridge Infectious Diseases Annual Symposium, on the 25th March 2025. This will be an in-person event, at Robinson College.

For those unfamiliar with it, the annual symposium is a one-day event in which CID brings together its members to learn about the network's research. There will be talks from junior and senior researchers, combined with flash talks and poster presentations from PhDs and postdocs; with representation from all Schools, embracing CID interdisciplinarity.

It is an excellent opportunity for our members to:

  • Hear about Cambridge’s strengths across infectious diseases;
  • Gain new perspectives and ideas to advance their research;
  • Engage with our major interdisciplinary themes and discuss project ideas;
  • Network with colleagues and find new collaborators.

This year we will have contributions from the interface of host and pathogens, reproduction and infectious diseases, antimicrobial resistance, and bacterial behaviour.

Our confirmed speakers are:

  • Mat Beale (Wellcome Sanger Institute)

  • Lovleen Bhullar (Land Economy)

  • Graham Christie (Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology)

  • Malaka De Silva (Genetics)

  • Camilla Godlee (Biochemistry/Pathology)

  • Nichola Hawkins (NIAB)

  • Nerea Irigoyen (Pathology)

  • Sivan Nir (Chemistry)

  • Roisin Owens (Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology)

  • Edwin Panford-Quainoo (Public Health)

  • Lucy Weinert (Veterinary Medicine)

  • Sam Wilson (Medicine)

  • Ashraf Zarkan (Genetics)
