Scientific Sessions

Mechanisms of Bacterial Pathogenesis

  • Molecular and cellular mechanisms of bacterial infections
  • Host-pathogen interactions
  • Antibiotic resistance and AMR monitoring
  • Vaccine development and preventive strategies

Understanding the mechanisms of bacterial pathogenesis is vital in Infectious Diseases, integrating Epidemiology & Public Health, Disease Prevention & Control, and Vaccines and Immunization. Participants will explore bacterial virulence factors, host immune responses, and molecular pathways that contribute to disease. Insights into pathogen evolution, transmission dynamics, and environmental influences help guide prevention and control strategies.

The session also emphasizes Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) and its impact on clinical outcomes, highlighting stewardship programs and innovative therapeutic approaches. Attendees will gain practical strategies for applying molecular insights to improve patient care and reduce the spread of bacterial infections at a population level.

Key Highlights

  • Molecular basis of bacterial virulence
  • Host-pathogen interactions
  • Antibiotic resistance and stewardship
  • Vaccine and preventive strategies
  • Public health implications and outbreak mitigation
