Overview

Welcome

Dear colleagues,

The 7th edition of the International Workshop on Pharmacology of Tuberculosis Drugs, which has been held on 5 September 2014 in Washington DC, USA, preceding the ICAAC 2014, has been a tremendous success.

Excellent presentations by the invited speakers and the poster presentors have created a very interesting program.

We would like to thank all attendees for their participation and input and we would like to express our appreciation to everyone who took the time to fill in the evaluation form at the end of the conference. Thank you for your feedback and suggestions!

Kind regards,

General Information

Meeting Objectives

- To gather experts involved in the pharmacology of TB drugs from different disciplines in an interactive workshop setting
- To provide a platform for presentation and discussion of the latest scientific developments in the field.
- To map all current studies and results related to available and new TB drugs
- To help translate new in vitro and in vivo pharmacological data into new drug treatment combinations for TB

Unique Features

Our workshop involves a strong community of clinical pharmacologists and other healthcare professionals working in the TB-field. Also, the workshop provides an independent scientific platform to discuss controversial topics and views.
