Join us for the second international Interdisciplinary Sepsis Symposium. This interdisciplinary gathering is designed to improve sepsis care over the next few decades.
Meet world leaders in sepsis clinical research, big data/machine learning analytics, novel devices, groundbreaking immunology research, and the latest in education and training. We will also discuss policy and advocacy related to sepsis.

developing strategies in collaboration with policy makers, government agencies, and foundations.
