Hot Topics In Infection And Immunity In Children (IIC) – The ESPID-Oxford Course is a residential training course which aims to provide basic information and updates in key areas of paediatric infection.

The course is targeted at paediatric infectious disease trainees and trainers, and all those who manage children with infections. Delegates come from all over the world there is usually a 50/50 mix of trainees/consultants.
