ConferenceESCMID Global Congress 2026 is the annual international meeting of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, bringing together clinicians, microbiologists and researchers working across the full spectrum of infectious diseases.
The congress covers antimicrobial resistance, clinical microbiology, infectious disease diagnostics and translational research, with dedicated sessions relevant to musculoskeletal infection, including biofilm-associated infection, osteomyelitis and prosthetic joint infection diagnostics. The programme spans fundamental science, applied diagnostics and clinical management, reflecting the interface between laboratory insight and patient care.
ESCMID Global is a broad, multidisciplinary congress rather than a specialised orthopaedic meeting. It is particularly relevant for clinicians and researchers seeking exposure to advances in microbiology, diagnostics and AMR that inform infection practice across specialties, including bone and joint infection care.
