Save the Date - March 11th, 2020 - WSC Spotlight: Sepsis and Antimicrobial Resistance – An Existential Threat

Update January 27th, 2020: Due to unforeseen circumstances, we will have to postpone the 2020 WSC Spotlight - it will not take place on March 11th, 2020. Subsequently, registrations will not start in January 2020, either. We will update this post as soon as we know the new date.

On March 11th, 2020, we will bring you the ‘WSC Spotlight: Sepsis and Antimicrobial Resistance – An Existential Threat’, an innovative and free online congress exploring the relationship between sepsis and antimicrobial resistance.

Over the course of 8 sessions, around 50 speakers from multiple countries and backgrounds will give short but insightful talks – ranging from framing the global burden of AMR and sepsis, to potential synergies in the fight against both, to how inequalities impact responses to sepsis globally, and much, much more.

Registrations will open in January 2020, and the full program, incl. all speakers and time zones, will be available at that time as well.

World Sepsis Congress is a free online congress bringing knowledge about sepsis to all parts of the world. All the large World Sepsis Congresses take place every two years in the even years (1st WSC in 2016, 2nd WSC in 2018, 3rd WSC in 2020, and so on), while in the uneven years in between, WSC Spotlight shines a spotlight on one specific issue of sepsis.
All talks from World Sepsis Congress and WSC Spotlight are recorded and are available on our YouTube Channel and on Apple Podcasts. They have been accessed over 260,000 times as of December 2019.
