ICAAC Conference in San Francisco, September 26-29

The annual Interscience Conference on Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy will be held September 26-29 in San Francisco's Moscone Center. This large conference--about 10,000 people usually attend--focuses on new antibiotics, and has major sections on HIV and related conditions.

This year's conference is likely to have many notable reports on HIV treatment research--following the historical pattern that ICAAC is most important for AIDS on odd-numbered years, when the World AIDS Conference does not occur and compete for research presentations.


ICAAC is sponsored by the American Society for Microbiology, 202-737-3600. For general registration, ask for the Meetings Department; for press registration, ask for Jim Sliwa. Additional information is also available at http://www.asm.org --click on "Meetings" at the top of the page.
