OBIC 2019
This will be held on Thursday 21st and Friday 22nd March 2019 at the Oxford Examination Schools.
The Oxford Bone Infection Conference aims to facilitate multidisciplinary team working in the management of complex bone and joint infection. International experts in microbiology and infectious diseases, orthopaedics, plastic and reconstructive surgery are invited each year to present their work. Delegates are invited from all these specialities plus from general practice, nurses and allied health care professionals. The programme provides an opportunity for debate, discussion and the exchange of ideas in the rapidly developing field of musculoskeletal infection. There are many opportunities for delegates to present their research and for discussion and social interaction between the disciplines. There will be oral and poster presentations with prizes for the best quality research.
The conference venue, Oxford University Examination Schools, was designed and built by Thomas Jackson between 1876 and 1881. The building stands on a part of the site of the Angel Inn, which is reputed to have been the first Inn in England. Each year thousands of undergraduates sit their exams in this historical Grade II listed building, which is commonly known as the “Schools”. They must wear traditional ‘sub-fusc’, black and white attire which is an Oxford tradition that is still rigidly enforced.
This year there will again be networking and social opportunities including a drinks reception and a conference dinner.
