1 SPONSOR & EXHIBITOR INVITATION

2 WELCOME TO ISSSI 2018 It is a pleasure to welcome you to participate in 18th International Symposium on Staphylococci and Staphylococcal Infections (ISSSI 2018), which will be held August 2018 in Copenhagen, Denmark. Staphylococcus aureus is a commensal bacterium causing a variety of localized and invasive infections. Due to its profound ability to acquire resistance to clinically relevant antibiotics, S. aureus remains a major clinical challenge worldwide. The International Symposium on Staphylococci and Staphylococcal Infections (ISSSI) is held every 2 years, and is one of the most highly regarded cycling meetings that serve the staphylococcal community. The meeting brings together outstanding investigators and clinicians in the Staphylococcal field forming a platform for interaction between basic science and translational research. The 18th ISSSI meeting will be hosted by the Statens Serum Institute and the University of Copenhagen and will take place in the Maersk Tower providing state-of-the-art symposium facilities. The meeting's program will cover a diverse range of subjects on staphylococcal research including disease management, pathogenesis, immune evasion, colonization, and evolution. In addition, proffered oral and poster sessions will be an integral part of the program and all delegates are invited to submit abstracts. We aim to welcome participants from at least 40 countries. We welcome industry to participate in integrated symposia covering clinically relevant challenges and improvements in treatment/prevention, in diagnostics and in bioinformatics. Furthermore, a bioinformatics show case will be placed in the foyer area where industry and scientists will present advanced bioinformatic tools and programs as short repeated presentations. Don t miss this great opportunity to promote your company and join us for ISSSI 2018 in Copenhagen! Kind regards from the Organising Committee: Dorte Frees, University of Copenhagen Anders Rhod Larsen, Statens Serum Institut (SSI) 2
