It is with great pleasure that the Australian Infection Control Association (AICA) together with the host state invite you to participate in the forthcoming 6th Biennial AICA Conference - 2010 Infection Control Odyssey on 4 - 6 October 2010 in Perth, Western Australia.

    • Implementing evidence-based practice and affecting change
    • Antimicrobial resistance, stewardship and future influences
    • Advances in laboratory diagnostics
    • Infection prevention and control across the healthcare continuum
